sched/core: Document that RT task priorities are 1...99

John identified three files which claim that RT task priorities start at
zero. As far as I understand, 0 is used for DL and has nothing to do
wihich RT priorities as identified by the RT policy.

Correct the comment, valid RT priorities are in the range from 1 to 99.

 Implementing SCHED_EDF might take a while to complete. Priority Inheritance is
 the biggest challenge as the current linux PI infrastructure is geared towards
-the limited static priority levels 0-99. With deadline scheduling you need to

 do deadline inheritance (since priority is inversely proportional to the
 deadline delta (deadline - now)).
