There is some progress here. It boots but sometimes i see the backtrace below.

Also: Has s.th. changed in respect to the modules. I have one module wich goes on an
endless interrupt loop freezing the device. The driver works fine for 3.0 - 3.4 preempt
rt kernels? This is a miscdev based driver. If someone is interested i can post the source
over here. But unfortunatly i have not figured out why this thing goes to an endless interrupt.
The identical driver works flawless on 3.4.

As always i have some platform adaptation code applied but nothing serious/different from the 3.4 patches which work fine.
