Good catch! I'm all for using names instead of numeric values,
however, I wonder if it'd be more readable to use "clamp" instead?
niceval = clamp(niceval, MIN_NICE, MAX_NICE);
Good suggestion! This patch here is just to replace the numeric values with
a name defined in prio.h. So I will send another patch to make it more
readable
with clamp after the patch set here applied. Is this plan ok to you?
Thanx.
