Subject: __sched_setscheduler: don't do any policy checks when not "user"
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=725aad24c3ba96a7c06448c14c265a466cdbd663;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

__sched_setscheduler: don't do any policy checks when not "user"

The "user" parameter to __sched_setscheduler indicates whether the
change is being done on behalf of a user process or not.  If not, we
shouldn't apply any permissions checks, so don't call
security_task_setscheduler().
