[PATCH 1/2] security: add const to security_task_setscheduler()

From: KOSAKI Motohiro
Date: Mon Jul 05 2010 - 20:50:25 EST


All security modules shouldn't change sched_param parameter of
security_task_setscheduler(). This is not only meaningless, but
also make harmful result if caller pass static variable.

This patch add const to it.
