The blocked_queue_{hd,tl} and the sleeping_queue are currently cooperatively managed between the scheduler and (some but not all of) the non-threaded I/O manager implementations. They lived as global vars with the scheduler, but are poked by I/O primops and the I/O manager backends. This patch is a step on the path towards making the management of I/O or timer blocking belong to the I/O managers and not the scheduler. Specifically, this patch moves the {blocked,sleeping}_queue from being global vars in the scheduler to being members of the CapIOManager struct within each Capability. They are not yet exclusively used by the I/O managers: they are still poked from a couple other places, notably in the scheduler before calling awaitEvent.The blocked_queue_{hd,tl} and the sleeping_queue are currently cooperatively managed between the scheduler and (some but not all of) the non-threaded I/O manager implementations.
