sched: document profile=sleep requiring CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS
profile=sleep only works if CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS is set. This patch notes the limitation in Documentation/kernel-parameters.txt and prints a warning at boot-time if profile=sleep is used without CONFIG_SCHEDSTAT. Signed-off-by: Mel Gorman <mel@csn.ul.ie> Signed-off-by: Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu>
