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>

+ * @callno: filled with system call number or -1
+ * @args: filled with @maxargs system call arguments
+ * @maxargs: number of elements in @args to fill
+ * @sp: filled with user stack pointer
+ * @pc: filled with user PC
+ *
+ * If @target is blocked in a system call, returns zero with *@callno
+ * set to the the call's number and @args filled in with its arguments.
+ * Registers not used for system call arguments may not be available and
+ * it is not kosher to use &struct user_regset calls while the system
+ * call is still in progress. Note we may get this result if @target
+ * has finished its system call but not yet returned to user mode, such
+ * as when it's stopped for signal handling or syscall exit tracing.
+ *
+ * If @target is blocked in the kernel during a fault or exception,
+ * returns zero with *@callno set to -1 and does not fill in @args.
+ * If so, it's now safe to examine @target using &struct user_regset
+ * get() calls as long as we're sure @target won't return to user mode.
+ *
+ * Returns -%EAGAIN if @target does not remain blocked.
+ *
+ * Returns -%EINVAL if @maxargs is too large (maximum is six).
