i disagree. Thomas' tree has been tested in -rt for some time already,
and he's the author of this code so as far as i'm concerned he calls the
shots of what to do and in what order to do. He did the overwhelming
majority of regression fixes of dynticks/hrt stuff both in -mm and in
-rt. So why should i not take his queue over yours? Last i checked your
queue didnt really do anything substantial to the code - other than
shuffling around wast amounts of code around. Even this latest iteration
from Thomas that is now in -rt is working well on the target platform we
are aiming for currently (i686). (and it's working on x86_64 as well in
-rt)
