If the work queue you schedule is a linux work queue, that is not going
to work, for the same reason as in the last e-mail: you can not call
services interacting with Linux scheduler in xenomai context. So, if you
need an spi driver for real-time drivers or applicaitons, you have to
write one for the RTDM skin without using Linux services. There is no
way around.

The cpu is idle most of the time, so, the idle function is the function
the most likely to be interrupted by an interrupt.
