Perhaps change this for 'sched_proc_update_handler' with min and max
values ? Otherwise userspace is allowed to write nonsensical values
here. And since sysctl_sched_thermal_decay_coeff is used to shift, this
can lead to an undefined behaviour.
Also, could we take this sysctl out of SCHED_DEBUG ? I expect this to be
used/tuned on production devices where SCHED_DEBUG should theoretically
be off.
Thanks,
Quentin
