this is a misconception - there's been a few dozen patches steadily
trickling into mainline that were all started in the PREEMPT_RT
patchset, so this "RT stuff", both the generic arguments and the details
are very much relevant. I wouldnt be doing it if it wasnt relevant to
the mainline kernel. The discussions are well concentrated into 2-3
subjects so you can plonk those threads if you are not interested.
