I wouldn't ask the supplier to provide a "real time version of the
driver". I would ask them to provide a correctly written Linux driver
that works on a current kernel version and can be submitted to Greg KH's
driver project. And I would ask the supplier to contribute to the
project and collaborate with Greg to make the driver ready for mainline.
If it still crashes under PREEMPT_RT, then the driver is simply buggy -
it just happens that the bugs do not show up or show up less frequently
on the standard mainline kernel.
