SubjectRe: [PATCH v6 01/16] sched/core: Allow sched_setattr() to use the current policy
Hello Patrick,

What do you think about the following minor changes:

I would remove this comment:
- the meaning of SCHED_POLICY_MAX is evident, and
- should we hint on how the value is used? That comment will be removed
the next time SCHED_POLICY_MAX is used for something else.
This is what should also happen to the comment of SETPARAM_POLICY:
now sched_setparam() is no more the only code path accessing
SETPARAM_POLICY.

> +#define SCHED_POLICY_MAX 7

+#define SCHED_POLICY_MAX SCHED_DEADLINE

This would make it compliant with the definition of MAX.

In line with the previous update.

Thanks,
