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.

+config STM
+	tristate "System Trace Module devices"
+	select CONFIGFS_FS
+	help
+	  A System Trace Module (STM) is a device exporting data in System
+	  Trace Protocol (STP) format as defined by MIPI STP standards.
+	  Examples of such devices are Intel(R) Trace Hub and Coresight STM.
+
+	  Say Y here to enable System Trace Module device support.
+
+config STM_DUMMY
+	tristate "Dummy STM driver"
+	help
+	  This is a simple dummy device that pretends to be an stm device
+	  and discards your data. Use for stm class testing.
+
+	  If you don't know what this is, say N.
+
+config STM_SOURCE_CONSOLE
+	tristate "Kernel console over STM devices"
+	help
+	  This is a kernel space trace source that sends kernel log
+	  messages to trace hosts over STM devices.
+
+	  If you want to send kernel console messages over STM devices,
+	  say Y.
