Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v3.14-rt1 patch set.

Changes since v3.12.15-rt25
- I dropped the sparc64 patches I had in the queue. They did not apply
cleanly, the code in v3.14 changed in the MMU area. Here is where I
remembered that it was not working perfectly either.

- Scott Wood pointed out that I forgot a return value in the latest
gianfar fixup for RT. Return value added, thanks Scott.

This -RT series didn't crashed within ~4h testing on my ARM and
x86-32.
x86-64 crashed after I started hackbench. I figured out that the crash
does not happen with lazy-preempt disabled. Therefore the last but one
patch in the queue disables lazy preempt on x86-64. With this change the
test box survived ~2h without a crash. I look at this later but it looks
good now.

I decided to release it now because otherwise it would be lying around
probably the next two weeks or so. So here it is, enjoy.

Known issues:

- bcache is disabled.
