Restrict idleprio to superuser:
Realtime priority has to be restricted for reasons which should be
obvious. However, for idle priority, there is a potential for
system deadlock if an idleprio process gains a lock on a resource
that other processes need (and the idleprio process can't run
due to a CPU-bound normal process). Fix me! XXX
