We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.

- update to Linus' latest

- more perf counters rt education

- !RT build fix (jstultz)

- MFD rt fix (khilman)

Known issues:
- ARM highmem
- scheduler load balancing oddities. Peter is working on it.
- latency tracer oddities (latency tracers in combination with
events). Steven is working on those

Give it a good testing. We aim for releasing a stable .31-rt in less
than 24 hrs after Linus releases .31 :)
