+Subject: sched_nr_migrate wrong mode bits
+
+sched_nr_migrate has strange permission bits:
+
+ $ ls -l /proc/sys/kernel/sched_nr_migrate
+ --w----r-T 1 root root 0 2008-03-17 23:31 /proc/sys/kernel/sched_nr_migrate
+
+The bug is an obvious decimal/octal confusion.
+
+Fixed (collaterally) in Linus's tree by Peter Zijlstra with commit fa85ae241
+"sched: rt time limit" (in 2.6.25-rc1).
