[PATCH 4/5] media/ivtv: Reduce default FIFO priority
From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Thu Aug 01 2019 - 07:18:31 EST
The ivtv driver creates a FIFO-99 thread by default, reduce this to
FIFO-1.
FIFO-99 is the very highest priority available to SCHED_FIFO and
it not a suitable default; it would indicate the ivtv work is the
most important work on the machine.
FIFO-1 gets it above all OTHER tasks, which seems high enough lacking
better justification.
