Subject: rt-tester - move under selftests

Andrew/Ingo/Thomas,

You are all on the signed-off list for rt-tester. I have been poking
around the source tree looking for existing test and came across rt-tester.

What are your thoughts on rt-tester suitability to reside under
tools/testing/selftest and becoming part of kselftest target?
Would you like see it moved under the kselftest umbrella?

thanks,

Sure you can move it, but it is broken and needs a complete
rewrite. So the proper solution is to remove it. I kept it there as a
reminder to fix it, but obviously I never managed to do so.

Thanks,
