Subject: sched: Fix sched_policy < 0 comparison
X-Git-Tag: v3.15~6^2~2
X-Git-Url: http://git.cascardo.eti.br/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b14ed2c273f8ab872ae4e6735fe5ab09cb14b8c3;p=cascardo%2Flinux.git

sched: Fix sched_policy < 0 comparison

attr.sched_policy is u32, therefore a comparison against < 0 is never true.
Fix this by casting sched_policy to int.

This issue was reported by coverity CID 1219934.

Fixes: dbdb22754fde ("sched: Disallow sched_attr::sched_policy < 0")
