Add the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as base
Import the rt linux 4.1.3-rt3 as OPNFV kvm base. It's from git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git linux-4.1.y-rt and the base is: commit 0917f823c59692d751951bf5ea699a2d1e2f26a2 Author: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> Date: Sat Jul 25 12:13:34 2015 +0200 Prepare v4.1.3-rt3 Signed-off-by: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> We lose all the git history this way and it's not good. We should apply another opnfv project repo in future. Change-Id: I87543d81c9df70d99c5001fbdf646b202c19f423 Signed-off-by: Yunhong Jiang <yunhong.jiang@intel.com>

+ <para>Applications can optionally call the
+<constant>VIDIOC_PREPARE_BUF</constant> ioctl to pass ownership of the buffer
+to the driver before actually enqueuing it, using the
+<constant>VIDIOC_QBUF</constant> ioctl, and to prepare it for future I/O.
+Such preparations may include cache invalidation or cleaning. Performing them
+in advance saves time during the actual I/O. In case such cache operations are
+not required, the application can use one of
+<constant>V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_INVALIDATE</constant> and
+<constant>V4L2_BUF_FLAG_NO_CACHE_CLEAN</constant> flags to skip the respective
+step.</para>
