Just think that fifos, i.e. tq_rtl, unless something has been changed
recently, are run with tq_scheduler. Since that happens only when the
Linux scheduler is called you'll get the answer without the need of any
example.
In fact I could not obtain 5 MB/s to disk from an interrupt handler
running at 1 Khz till I modified fifos to run, at user choice:
tq_immediate, tq_timer or wake_up_interruptible.
