sched: Use rcu in sys_sched_getscheduler/sys_sched_getparam()
read_lock(&tasklist_lock) does not protect sys_sched_getscheduler and sys_sched_getparam() against a concurrent update of the policy or scheduler parameters as do_sched_setscheduler() does not take the tasklist_lock. The accessed integers can be retrieved w/o locking and are snapshots anyway. Using rcu_read_lock() to protect find_task_by_vpid() and prevent the task struct from going away is not changing the above situation.
