[PATCH] Cygwin: sched_setaffinity: fix EACCES if pid of other process is used

[Christian Franke]

This fixes:

$ taskset -p 0x1 1234
pid 1234's current affinity mask: fffffff
taskset: failed to set pid 1234's affinity: Permission denied
Perhaps older Windows versions were more relaxed if 
PROCESS_SET_INFORMATION is granted.
