Hi Ingo,

I think an interface to access RLIMIT_RTTIME from outside is useful.
It makes administrator able to set RLIMIT_RTTIME watchdog to existing
real-time applications without impact.

I implemented that interface with /proc filesystem.

From: Hiroshi Shimamoto <h-shimamoto@ct.jp.nec.com>

Introduce new proc interface for RTTIME watchdog.
It makes administrator able to set RTTIME watchdog to existing applications.

$ echo 10000000 > /proc/<pid>/rttime
set RTTIME current value to 10000000, it means 10sec.

$ echo "10000000 20000000" > /proc/<pid>/rttime
set RTTIME current value to 10000000 and max value to 20000000.
