The reason I didn't include it is that we don't use SCHED_DEADLINE in
Android userspace. Can we add support for this in a follow-up patch,
or do you consider it necessary for accepting this series? If so I'm
curious why, since the driver will still work correctly even for
SCHED_DEADLINE tasks; it just won't inherit priority in that case
(much like it didn't inherit FIFO/RR priorities before this patch).
