Dear RT Folks, This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.14.48-rt49-rc1. Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too. The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate). The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the final release is. If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release on 8/10/2015. Note, these changes appear to make NO_HZ_FULL work as well as 3.18-rt does.
