We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.
 
    - update to Linus' latest
 
    - perf counter crash fix (peterz)
    
    - disabled MARKERS on RT. Code with no use(rs) which just causes
      trouble.

    - edge irq forced threading fix. Fixes the IDE "interrupt lost"
      reports

Known issues:
      - ARM highmem
      - scheduler load balancing oddities. Peter is working on it.
