Actually, we could trigger a signal for pthread_setschedparam to be
called for next switch to secondary mode. We could re-use the signal
already used to trigger a switch to primary mode for suspending a thread
running in secondary mode, finding a way to multiplex the information
passing, for instance, parameters to the siginfo structure.
