Hello Andy,

I have sent the patch which changes from rt to singlethread, I hope it fixes the 
breakage in linux-next.
In short testing, when there is virtually no load on the system I can not see 
any difference, which might change later.
But I'll keep in mind that probably I'm not going to better off with the waking 
up of a sleeping thread.
