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>

+Default video modes
+-------------------
+At the moment, there are two kernel command line arguments supported:
+
+mode:640x480
+mode:800x600
+ or
+mode:1024x768
+
+Full support for startup video modes (modedb) will be integrated soon.
+
+Version 1.9.9.1
+---------------
+* Fix memory detection for 512kB case
+* 800x600 mode
+* Fixed timings
+* Hint for AXP: Use -accel false -vyres -1 when changing resolution
+
+
+Version 1.9.4.4
+---------------
+* Preliminary Laguna support
+* Overhaul color register routines.
+* Associated with the above, console colors are now obtained from a LUT
+ called 'palette' instead of from the VGA registers. This code was
+ modelled after that in atyfb and matroxfb.
+* Code cleanup, add comments.
+* Overhaul SR07 handling.
+* Bug fixes.
+
+
+Version 1.9.4.3
+---------------
+* Correctly set default startup video mode.
+* Do not override ram size setting. Define
+ CLGEN_USE_HARDCODED_RAM_SETTINGS if you _do_ want to override the RAM
+ setting.
+* Compile fixes related to new 2.3.x IORESOURCE_IO[PORT] symbol changes.
+* Use new 2.3.x resource allocation.
+* Some code cleanup.
+
+
+Version 1.9.4.2
+---------------
+* Casting fixes.
+* Assertions no longer cause an oops on purpose.
+* Bug fixes.
+
+
+Version 1.9.4.1
+---------------
+* Add compatibility support. Now requires a 2.1.x, 2.2.x or 2.3.x kernel.
+
+
+Version 1.9.4
+-------------
+* Several enhancements, smaller memory footprint, a few bugfixes.
+* Requires kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later.
+
+
+Version 1.9.3
+-------------
+* Bundled with kernel 2.3.14-pre1 or later.
