Hi Jordan,

many thanks for the tests. I probably botched something during
the reverting - I now tried some more experiments and the system
now runs without BUGs and without kernel leak - of course
it needs some more uptime to be really sure.

My combined revert patch from 3.12.15-rt25 is at

That was all that was needed.

My problems were with periodic timers (I am on an embedded system
that runs things periodically anyway and I have also my doubts
regarding the stability), so the latest code did not break
only NO_HZ_FULL.

Thanks
