Mostly I'm just transferring the existing scheduler descriptions to the
automata style. I'm mostly checking that the code is as good or better,
but in general unless I have a decent description for the processor I'm
not doing much reworking.

I'm ok with this, though if you want to remove it before I'm done
transferring that'll be a little harder. I can still rework them, but at
that point we should probably make sure that at least the major
processors are covered. Conveniently scheduling descriptions are drop in
and can even go in on branches.
