Description
Resolves #2: modern Linux kernels use EEVDF (Earliest Eligible Virtual Deadline First) scheduler instead of CFS (Completely Fair Scheduler).
Although in theory the EEVDF scheduler could be backported, I've not seen anyone do this, so the switch here is a simple kernel version check: 6.6 or greater is taken to be EEVDF.
