We use preempt_RT so timer interrupt could be occurred. Now I found
out that forced threaded irq handler disables local irq on standard
linux so It is a linux-rt issue. Then should I make patch which
disables local irqs during hw_ep_prime for RT kernel and suggest it to
linux-rt maintainers?

Thanks for a kind answer Peter.
