Linux: Do not check unused bytes after sched_getattr in tst-sched_setattr

Linux 6.13 was released with a change that overwrites those bytes.
This means that the check_unused subtest fails.

Update the manual accordingly.

On failure, @code{sched_getattr} returns @math{-1} and sets @code{errno}.
If @code{errno} is @code{E2BIG}, this means that the buffer is not large
