[PATCH RT 0/2] Linux 3.12.70-rt94-rc1

[Steven Rostedt]

Dear RT Folks,

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.12.70-rt94-rc1.

Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too.

The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when
the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate).

The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the
final release is.

If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release
on 2/13/2017.

Enjoy,

-- Steve

[PATCH RT 1/2] workqueue: use rcu_readlock() in put_pwq_unlocked()

[Steven Rostedt]

[-- Attachment #1: 0001-workqueue-use-rcu_readlock-in-put_pwq_unlocked.patch --]

3.12.70-rt94-rc1 stable review patch.
If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de>

The RCU sched protection was changed to RCU only and so all IRQ-off and
preempt-off disabled region were changed to the relevant rcu-read-lock
primitives. One was missed and triggered:
