   Choose the default scheduler.

Tried that before:

And Andrew didn't like it...
One way or another we need to get this fixed in the document. Listing
credit as the still the default is wrong.

I agree that what is there is wrong, but so is saying credit2.

This documentation is for users, because develops know exactly how they
configured their schedulers, and won't actually need to refer to it.

As a consequence, it depends heavily on what a specific
distro/downstream chose, config-wise.

I think there are several places in xen-command-line.pandoc that just
contain the default values set in Kconfig, so IMO if we want to
change this it should be done wholesale rather than picking on every
default value change. Opinions?

xen-command-line.pandoc wholly predates Kconfig.  We're only in this
mess because previous patches haven't been appropriately reviewed.

Lets fix it up to be correct, but lets not delay fixing this to look for
potential other cases.

The ultimate fix would be to generate this document according to
Kconfig settings. :-D
