AFAIK sched_setattr currently mandates that a policy is always specified
[1]. I was wondering if relaxing such requirement might be handy. Being
util clamp a cross-class feature it might be cumbersome to always have
to get current policy/params and use those with new umin/umax just to
change the latter.

sched_setparam already uses the in-kernel SETPARAM_POLICY thing, maybe
we could extend that to sched_setattr? Not sure exposing this to
userspace is a good idea though. :-/

Best,
