Good question.
Why is it resetting all the default, even processes with rt privileges
not granted by RealtimeKit? Isn't rtkit supposed to be the only
authorized way to access schedulers other that SCHED_OTHER by non-root
users?
(I assume, for example, that it would not under any circumstances reset
the scheduler of the kernel interrupt processes in an rt patched
kernel!!)
