The function expects a parameter of type |drm_sched_priority|, and a 
static analyzer flagged our usage of hard-coded values.
Upon reviewing the implementation of |drm_sched_entity_init|, I 
discovered that the function is already safeguarded to handle
priority levels based on the scheduler's run_queues. Notably, altering 
|DRM_SCHED_PRIORITY_KERNEL| to a non-zero value could
potentially disrupt scheduler initialization itself (i = 
DRM_SCHED_PRIORITY_KERNEL; i < sched->num_rqs; i++) .

Therefore, utilizing it seemed like a safe approach.

However, defining |XE_SCHED_PRIORITY_DEFAULT == 0| and employing it 
doesn't seem logical.

Hence, if you perceive this change as risky or unsafe, lets drop it.
