let me reformulate that as "haven't made my mind up". first step of coirse is some form of risk assessment, and that risk seems to be rather small. i can perfectly live with postponing this to after release as well, not pushing. > > kernel-rtsol should make release imo. > I haven't seen a working diff yet.
