Userspace real-time applications may have design flaws that they raise
page faults in real-time threads, and thus have unexpected latencies.
Add an linear temporal logic monitor to detect this scenario.

+ Monitor that real-time tasks do not raise page faults, causing
+ undesirable latency.
+
+ If you are developing a real-time system and not entirely sure whether
+ the applications are designed correctly for real-time, you want to say
+ Y here.
+
+ This monitor does not affect execution speed while it is not running,
+ therefore it is safe to enable this in production kernel.
