Daniel Bristot de Oliveira 8185982aa1 sched: Fix sched_setparam() policy == -1 logic 
commit d8d28c8f00 upstream.

The scheduler uses policy == -1 to preserve the current policy state to
implement sched_setparam(). But, as (int) -1 is equals to 0xffffffff,
it's matching the if (policy & SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK) on
_sched_setscheduler(). This match changes the policy value to an
invalid value, breaking the sched_setparam() syscall.

This patch checks policy == -1 before check the SCHED_RESET_ON_FORK flag.

The following program shows the bug:

int main(void)
{
	struct sched_param param = {
		.sched_priority = 5,
	};

	sched_setscheduler(0, SCHED_FIFO, &param);
	param.sched_priority = 1;
	sched_setparam(0, &param);
	param.sched_priority = 0;
	sched_getparam(0, &param);
	if (param.sched_priority != 1)
		printf("failed priority setting (found %d instead of 1)\n",
			param.sched_priority);
	else
		printf("priority setting fine\n");
}
