From: Tom Zanussi <[email protected]>

Dear RT Folks,

This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 5.4.143-rt64-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 2021-09-07.

To build 5.4.143-rt64-rc1 directly, the following patches should be applied:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/linux-5.4.tar.xz

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v5.x/patch-5.4.143.xz

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.4/patch-5.4.143-rt64-rc1.patch.xz

You can also build from 5.4.143-rt63 by applying the incremental patch:

https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.4/incr/patch-5.4.143-rt63-rt64-rc1.patch.xz


Enjoy,

-- Tom

[ Upstream commit b2ed0a4302faf2bb09e97529dd274233c082689b ]

There's no chance of sleeping here, the reader is giving up the
lock and possibly waking up the writer who is waiting on it.
