Linux 3.4.112-rt144-rc1

Dear RT Folks,

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.4.112-rt144-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 2016.

Enjoy,

-- Steve
