From e09b41010ba33a20a87472ee821fa407a5b8da36 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: José Pekkarinen Date: Mon, 11 Apr 2016 10:41:07 +0300 Subject: 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. MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit 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.
