So they do...
I guess that'll stop the bh code running 'on top of' my RT thread.
But won't help getting the RT process running when the 'events_unbound'
kernel worker is running.

They also use grub2 which is so complicated update-grub is always used
which dumbs everything down to a default set that is hard to change.
