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>

+Description
+-----------
+
+LM95235 and LM95245 are 11-bit digital temperature sensors with a 2-wire System
+Management Bus (SMBus) interface and TruTherm technology that can monitor
+the temperature of a remote diode as well as its own temperature.
+The chips can be used to very accurately monitor the temperature of
+external devices such as microprocessors.
+
+All temperature values are given in millidegrees Celsius. Local temperature
+is given within a range of -127 to +127.875 degrees. Remote temperatures are
+given within a range of -127 to +255 degrees. Resolution depends on
+temperature input and range.
+
+Each sensor has its own critical limit. Additionally, there is a relative
+hysteresis value common to both critical limits. To make life easier to
+user-space applications, two absolute values are exported, one for each
+channel, but these values are of course linked. Only the local hysteresis
+can be set from user-space, and the same delta applies to the remote
+hysteresis.
+
+The lm95245 driver can change its update interval to a fixed set of values.
+It will round up to the next selectable interval. See the datasheet for exact
+values. Reading sensor values more often will do no harm, but will return
+'old' values.
