These changes are the raw update to linux-4.4.6-rt14. Kernel sources
are taken from kernel.org, and rt patch from the rt wiki download page. During the rebasing, the following patch collided: Force tick interrupt and get rid of softirq magic(I70131fb85). Collisions have been removed because its logic was found on the source already. Change-Id: I7f57a4081d9deaa0d9ccfc41a6c8daccdee3b769 Signed-off-by: José Pekkarinen <jose.pekkarinen@nokia.com>

+<para>Tuning into a Digital TV physical channel and starting decoding it
+ requires changing a set of parameters, in order to control the
+ tuner, the demodulator, the Linear Low-noise Amplifier (LNA) and to set the
+ antenna subsystem via Satellite Equipment Control (SEC), on satellite
+ systems. The actual parameters are specific to each particular digital
+ TV standards, and may change as the digital TV specs evolves.</para>
+<para>In the past, the strategy used was to have a union with the parameters
+ needed to tune for DVB-S, DVB-C, DVB-T and ATSC delivery systems grouped
+ there. The problem is that, as the second generation standards appeared,
+ those structs were not big enough to contain the additional parameters.
+ Also, the union didn't have any space left to be expanded without breaking

-<para>The kind of parameters passed to the frontend device for tuning depend on

-<para>The struct <constant>dvb_frontend_parameters</constant> uses an
-union with specific per-system parameters. However, as newer delivery systems
-required more data, the structure size weren't enough to fit, and just
-extending its size would break the existing applications. So, those parameters
-were replaced by the usage of <link linkend="FE_GET_SET_PROPERTY">
-<constant>FE_GET_PROPERTY/FE_SET_PROPERTY</constant></link> ioctl's. The
-new API is flexible enough to add new parameters to existing delivery systems,
-and to add newer delivery systems.</para>
-<para>So, newer applications should use <link linkend="FE_GET_SET_PROPERTY">

-FE_TUNE_MODE_ONESHOT When set, this flag will disable any zigzagging or other "normal" tuning behaviour. Additionally, there will be no automatic monitoring of the lock status, and hence no frontend events will be generated. If a frontend device is closed, this flag will be automatically turned off when the device is reopened read-write.

-<title>Demux API</title>
-<para>The demux API should be implemented for each demux in the system. It is used to select
-the TS source of a demux and to manage the demux resources. When the demux
-client allocates a resource via the demux API, it receives a pointer to the API of that
-resource.
-</para>
-<para>Each demux receives its TS input from a DVB front-end or from memory, as set via the
-demux API. In a system with more than one front-end, the API can be used to select one of
-the DVB front-ends as a TS source for a demux, unless this is fixed in the HW platform. The
-demux API only controls front-ends regarding their connections with demuxes; the APIs
-used to set the other front-end parameters, such as tuning, are not defined in this
-document.
-</para>
-<para>The functions that implement the abstract interface demux should be defined static or
-module private and registered to the Demux Directory for external access. It is not necessary
-to implement every function in the demux_t struct, however (for example, a demux interface
-might support Section filtering, but not TS or PES filtering). The API client is expected to
-check the value of any function pointer before calling the function: the value of NULL means
-&#8220;function not available&#8221;.
-</para>
-<para>Whenever the functions of the demux API modify shared data, the possibilities of lost
-update and race condition problems should be addressed, e.g. by protecting parts of code with
-mutexes. This is especially important on multi-processor hosts.
-</para>
-<para>Note that functions called from a bottom half context must not sleep, at least in the 2.2.x
-kernels. Even a simple memory allocation can result in a kernel thread being put to sleep if
-swapping is needed. For example, the Linux kernel calls the functions of a network device
-interface from a bottom half context. Thus, if a demux API function is called from network
-device code, the function must not sleep.

-<title>Demux Callback API</title>
-<para>This kernel-space API comprises the callback functions that deliver filtered data to the
-demux client. Unlike the other APIs, these API functions are provided by the client and called
-from the demux code.
-</para>
-<para>The function pointers of this abstract interface are not packed into a structure as in the
-other demux APIs, because the callback functions are registered and used independent
-of each other. As an example, it is possible for the API client to provide several
-callback functions for receiving TS packets and no callbacks for PES packets or
-sections.
-</para>
-<para>The functions that implement the callback API need not be re-entrant: when a demux
-driver calls one of these functions, the driver is not allowed to call the function again before
-the original call returns. If a callback is triggered by a hardware interrupt, it is recommended
-to use the Linux &#8220;bottom half&#8221; mechanism or start a tasklet instead of making the callback
-function call directly from a hardware interrupt.

- party is slow in processing the callback, it is possible that the circular buffer
- eventually fills up. If this happens, the demux driver should discard any TS

-<title>Section Feed API</title>
-<para>A section feed is a resource consisting of a PID filter and a set of section filters. Using this
-API, the client can set the properties of a section feed and to start/stop filtering. The API is
-defined as an abstract interface of the type dmx_section_feed_t. The functions that implement
-the interface should be defined static or module private. The client can get the handle of
-a section feed API by calling the function allocate_section_feed() in the demux
-API.
-</para>
-<para>On demux platforms that provide section filtering in hardware, the Section Feed API
-implementation provides a software wrapper for the demux hardware. Other platforms may
-support only PID filtering in hardware, requiring that TS packets are converted to sections in
-software. In the latter case the Section Feed API implementation can be a client of the TS
-Feed API.

- suffice. Additionally, software-only section filters can optionally be allocated
