Subject: kmemleak: Renice the scanning thread to +10
X-Git-Url: http://drtracing.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=bf2a76b317c6ccc6f7b6b1dc09664c5b6a155c61;p=deliverable%2Flinux.git

kmemleak: Renice the scanning thread to +10

This is a long-running thread but not high-priority. So it makes sense
to renice it to +10.
