>Description:
        _sched_setparam modifies l_priority using the user-supplied value.
        however, for SCHED_OTHER, it will be overwritten soon by
        dynamic adjustments.
>How-To-Repeat:
>Fix:
        save the user-supplied value somewhere and use it to
        calculate effective priority.  (like solaris)

        or

        disallow user priority adjustments for SCHED_OTHER.  (like linux)
