I do achieve real-time (stable, low-enough latency), but it doesn't last.

Yes.

I have not done exactly that – I have added the RT patch and
CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT_FULL option (with dependencies) to the package source
from which the original kernel was built.

I can try the 'make oldconfig' with a working non-rt kernel config next
time, but I won't be able to do that in the next week.

I use GUI applications, rely on working OpenGL. Graphics is 'reasonable'
as long as the system is stable, but sooner or later it locks-up/crashes.

Here are two of the kernel configs I have tried:

I suspect some firmware/hardware related thing which triggers the problem.
