After hwtesting and reverse engineering the kernel, it was found that the CTROS scheduler performs no priority boosting for threads like this, although some other forms of scheduling priority-starved threads might take place.
For example, it was found that hardware interrupts might cause low-priority threads to run if the CPU is preempted in the middle of an SVC handler that deschedules the current (high priority) thread before scheduling it again.
