Both work for me. Tested with current git head (mainline) + your patch.

I've restarted amarok and the glibc build each time after change to 
sched_features.

# cat sched_features
NEW_FAIR_SLEEPERS WAKEUP_PREEMPT START_DEBIT AFFINE_WAKEUPS CACHE_HOT_BUDDY 
SYNC_WAKEUPS HRTICK NO_DOUBLE_TICK NORMALIZED_SLEEPER DEADLINE

=> skips in music (amarok)
