Model Lenovo a2107a-f 
version 4.0.3

I'm having major issues with renicing processes.
i can renice a process in the user space.  such as renice -20 <pid>,
but i cannot renice into realtime(roundrobin),  FIFO,  or OTHER.
i.e.  renice -r 99 <pid>
if i issue renice -r 99 <pid> i get the error:  Operation Not Permitted.
WTF??  yes i'm in root.

what's funnier is i can sometimes get it to work if i changed toolbox 
ownership/group to root/shell,  and renice ownership/group to root/root.  
but it's random hit or miss.
and for more WTF,  if i change renice to root.root it sometimes changes 
toolbox to root.root.  and vice versa if i change toolbox to root.shell it 
changes renice to root.shell.

any clues as to what the !@#$ is going on with this android??  i never have 
this problem on my zte n9510,  but android 4.0.3 on this lenovo is retarded 
something aweful.  looks like google stuck in an extra chromosome in the 
permissions,  and i can't fix it.

root should be able to renice any process at anytime and change the io 
priorities at will,  but the permissions are seriously screwed and go back 
and forth,  even if i disable write on the 2 files,  sometimes keeps 
changing the damm ownership.group,  and something keeps preventing me from 
using "renice -r".  help before i burn every android in the house with 
gasoline and matches.
