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>

+ help
+ This option enables tracing of dynamically allocated kernel memory
+ to see if memory is used before it has been given an initial value.
+ Be aware that this requires half of your memory for bookkeeping and
+ will insert extra code at *every* read and write to tracked memory
+ thus slow down the kernel code (but user code is unaffected).
+
+ The kernel may be started with kmemcheck=0 or kmemcheck=1 to disable
+ or enable kmemcheck at boot-time. If the kernel is started with
+ kmemcheck=0, the large memory and CPU overhead is not incurred.
