Currently we don't utilize the sched_switch field anymore.
But, simply removing sched_switch field from the middle of the
sched_stat output will break tools.
So, to stay compatible we hardcode it to zero and remove the
field from the scheduler data structures.
Update the schedstat documentation accordingly.

According to commit 676db4af0430 ("cgroupfs: create /sys/fs/cgroup to
mount cgroupfs on") the canonical mountpoint for the cgroup filesystem
is /sys/fs/cgroup. Hence, this should be used in the documentation.

Thomas noted that we should disallow sysctl_sched_rt_runtime == 0 for
(!RT_GROUP) since the root group always has some RT tasks in it.
Further, update the documentation to inspire clue.
