Well, that rule would certainly make for a rather simplistic scheduler,
allowing a task with an early deadline to fully lock out other tasks
with intermittant CPU needs to miss their deadline because the first
of their IO operations (which automatically yield the CPU) were not
allowed to start until the early deadline task finished.
