The out-of-tree RT patches make extensive use of the code. Since it is
upstream code, I assumed it should go via the official stable trees.
Without RT, the code is limited the rt_mutex_lock() used by I2C and the
RCU booster-mutex. 
Since this might not be enough to trigger the problem, let me route this
via rt-stable trees.
