sched: No need for bootmem special cases

As of commit dcce284 ("mm: Extend gfp masking to the page
allocator") and commit 7e85ee0 ("slab,slub: don't enable
interrupts during early boot"), the slab allocator makes
sure we don't attempt to sleep during boot.

Therefore, remove bootmem special cases from the scheduler
and use plain GFP_KERNEL instead.
