instead of just the first scheduler we find in the array.

In fact, right now, if someone makes a typo when passing
the "sched=" command line option to Xen, we (with all
schedulers configured in) pick ARINC653, which is most
likely not what one would expect.

Go for the default scheduler instead.

I don't think I'm going to ask for this to be put in 4.7,
as I don't want to give Wei an heart attack... :-)

Considering it for backporting should be enough, IMO.
