apart from the CPU bandwidth appearing as a term. It's more properly
a rate of service as

Hi,
While running strace on some testcase running on -rt kernel (2.6.20-rt8 and
2.6.21-rc6-rt0), I have seen the following BUG:
BUG: scheduling with irqs disabled: strace/0x/2011
caller is rt_spin_lock_slowlock+0x102/0x1af
Call Trace:
[] dump_trace+0xbd/0x3d8
[] show_trace+0x44/0x6d

Another driver which should be fully converted to the kthread API:
kthread_stop() and kthread_should_stop().
And according to my logs, this driver was added to the tree more than
a year _after_ the kthread interface was made available.
This isn't good.
Andrew,
