In order to prepare for multiple vcpus per schedule unit move struct
task_slice in schedule() from the local stack into struct sched_unit
of the currently running unit. To make access easier for the single
schedulers add the pointer of the currently running unit as a
parameter
of do_schedule().

While at it switch the tasklet_work_scheduled parameter of
do_schedule() from bool_t to bool.

As struct task_slice is only ever modified with the local schedule
lock held it is safe to directly set the different units in struct
sched_unit instead of using an on-stack copy for returning the data.

Mmm... I'm sorry, but I'm not sure I understand what is going on here.

Do you mind explaining why we're not calling continue_running() any
longer (and why this happens in this patch)?

Good catch. The related coding gets added in patch 29 again. Seems as
if two patches got mixed up.
