Linux 3.12.15-rt26-rc1

Dear RT Folks,

The 3.12-rt kernel is entering the stable phase. But instead of just pulling the last development version into stable, there were a few bugs that needed to be fixed first. The 3.12.15-rt26 will go through an rc phase before it is officially released as stable.

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.12.15-rt26-rc1.

Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too.

The -rc release will be uploaded to kernel.org and will be deleted when the final release is out. This is just a review release (or release candidate).

The pre-releases will not be pushed to the git repository, only the final release is.

If all goes well, this patch will be converted to the next main release on 5/2/2014.

Enjoy,

-- Steve
