Even if we would really decide to keep PPC support, I am pretty sure that in the interest of easy maintainability we should not have an alternate scheduling strategy just for darwin...

That is because I saw that pattern used to check which cpu we are running on elsewhere in the code. I can change that line of code, but otherwise this patch is mostly about PWR8 and PWR9 and has nothing to do with darwin support.
