RT throtteling is still activate with 3.0.9-rt25 (+ ubifs stable patches) but 
now  ksoftirqd/0 is not going berserk.

Ok the only nitpik that is left, that the processor activates rt throtteling 
after the first boot with updated ubifs image. 
> Any ideas whats causing this?
Well it can be said that it is not ksoftirqd/0 going berserk which is 
triggering this. So i guess when this message is printed it just shows that 
the cpu had been temporarily overloded with work in interrupt context.
Is there more harm to expect from this message or save to ignore if the 
systemload is normal again?

Best regards
Tim
