Merge tag 'sched-fifo-2020-08-04' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip

Pull sched/fifo updates from Ingo Molnar:
 "This adds the sched_set_fifo*() encapsulation APIs to remove static
  priority level knowledge from non-scheduler code.

  The three APIs for non-scheduler code to set SCHED_FIFO are:

   - sched_set_fifo()
   - sched_set_fifo_low()
   - sched_set_normal()

  These are two FIFO priority levels: default (high), and a 'low'
  priority level, plus sched_set_normal() to set the policy back to
  non-SCHED_FIFO.

  Since the changes affect a lot of non-scheduler code, we kept this in
  a separate tree"
