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>

+Some notes regarding the cx18 driver for the Conexant CX23418 MPEG
+encoder chip:
+
+1) Currently supported are:
+
+ - Hauppauge HVR-1600
+ - Compro VideoMate H900
+ - Yuan MPC718
+ - Conexant Raptor PAL/SECAM devkit
+
+2) Some people have problems getting the i2c bus to work.
+ The symptom is that the eeprom cannot be read and the card is
+ unusable. This is probably fixed, but if you have problems
+ then post to the video4linux or ivtv-users mailing list.
+
+3) VBI (raw or sliced) has not yet been implemented.
+
+4) MPEG indexing is not yet implemented.
+
+5) The driver is still a bit rough around the edges, this should
+ improve over time.
+
+
+Firmware:
+
+You can obtain the firmware files here:
+
+http://dl.ivtvdriver.org/ivtv/firmware/cx18-firmware.tar.gz
+
+Untar and copy the .fw files to your firmware directory.
