3.14-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Richard Weinberger <[email protected]> commit b14ed2c273f8ab872ae4e6735fe5ab09cb14b8c3 upstream. attr.sched_policy is u32, therefore a comparison against < 0 is never true. Fix this by casting sched_policy to int. This issue was reported by coverity CID 1219934.
