sched: fix sync wakeups

Browse source 
Pawel Dziekonski reported that the openssl benchmark and his
quantum chemistry application both show slowdowns due to the
scheduler under-parallelizing execution.

The reason are pipe wakeups still doing 'sync' wakeups which
overrides the normal buddy wakeup logic - even if waker and
wakee are loosely coupled.

Fix an inversion of logic in the buddy wakeup code.
