OK, I can understand that line of reasoning.

Keep in mind that someday, someone who is looking for the implementation
of the SCHED_OTHER policy will be thoroughly confused by the kernel's
complete lack of reference to SCHED_OTHER. And they'll be asking you for
clarification.

Or, you could make some note in the source that SCHED_OTHER is
SCHED_NORMAL and eliminate any source of confusion now.
