So the current KEEP_POLICY basically provides sched_setparam(), and
given we have that as a syscall, that is supposedly a useful
functionality.
Also, NICE/PRIO/DL* is all the same thing and depends on the policy,
KEEP_PARAM should cover the lot
And I suppose the UTIL_CLAMP is !KEEP_UTIL; we could go either way
around with that flag.

I don't think so; we really do want to 'goto change' for util changes
too I think. Why duplicate part of that logic?
