Linux 4.4.50-rt63-rc1

Dear RT Folks,

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 4.4.50-rt63-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 3/10/2017.

**** NOTE ****

Julia Cartwright has kindly offered to take over maintaining v4.1-rt. She will be sending out and maintaining patches and the v4.1-rt git tree.

Thank you Julia!

**** **** ****

Enjoy,

-- Steve
