Hello RT Folks!

I'm pleased to announce the 5.4.161-rt66 stable release.

This release is just an update to the new stable 5.4.161
version and no RT specific changes have been made.

Took about an hour to git clone this
copied a 4.19 preempt-rt .config into its tree, did a make oldconfig 
taking 99% of the defaults getting rid of some obviously not rpi stuffs.

make exits in a few seconds, reporting:
In file included from include/linux/compiler.h:48,
                 from include/linux/stddef.h:4,
                 from include/linux/posix_types.h:4,

compilation terminated.

did an updatedb, but on a complete, running nicely rpi4b, no such file 
anyplace. gcc3.h, gcc4.h yes, totally uptodate raspbian buster system, 
but running this kernel image:

pi@rpi4:/media/pi/workspace/new-5.4-rt/linux-stable-rt $ uname -a
Linux rpi4.coyote.den 4.19.71-rt24-v7l+ #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Thu Feb 6 
07:09:18 EST 2020 armv7l GNU/Linux

fix?

Thank you.

Cheers, Gene Heskett.
