Dear RT folks!
I'm pleased to announce the v4.6.5-rt10 patch set.
Changes since v4.6.5-rt9:
- Added missing cpu_light_get() in the scsi fcoe driver. Patch by Mike
Galbraith.
- Under a special a condition (a preempted TLB flush in do_exit()) it
was possible on x86-UP to enter endless pagefaults. The pagefaults
stopped after a context switch.
Known issues
- CPU hotplug got a little better but can deadlock.
The delta patch against 4.6.5-rt9 is appended below and can be found here:
https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.6/incr/patch-4.6.5-rt9-rt10.patch.xz
