[Xenomai-core] [PATCH] fix pthread_create regression

[Jan Kiszka]

My rt-caps patch included an ugly regression for the posix skin:

pthread_create fails if the caller passes SCHED_FIFO + a priority > 0 in
the thread attribute. It's observable via switchtest for instance. This
patch should fix it.

Note that 2.3.x urgently needs this patch as well!
