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>

- Part 5 - static initialization of clock data
-
-For platforms with many clocks (often numbering into the hundreds) it
-may be desirable to statically initialize some clock data. This
-presents a problem since the definition of struct clk should be hidden
-from everyone except for the clock core in drivers/clk/clk.c.
-
-To get around this problem struct clk's definition is exposed in
-include/linux/clk-private.h along with some macros for more easily
-initializing instances of the basic clock types. These clocks must
-still be initialized with the common clock framework via a call to
-__clk_init.
-
-clk-private.h must NEVER be included by code which implements struct
-clk_ops callbacks, nor must it be included by any logic which pokes
-around inside of struct clk at run-time. To do so is a layering
-violation.
-
-To better enforce this policy, always follow this simple rule: any
-statically initialized clock data MUST be defined in a separate file
-from the logic that implements its ops. Basically separate the logic
-from the data and all is well.
