\o/ Linus merged the bulk of the #PREEMPT_RT locking infrastructure for proper #realtime support to #Linux mainline, which thus will be a part of #kernel 5.15: git.kernel.org/torvalds/c/e5e…

Congrats to Thomas and everyone involved!

To quote: ```[…] The underlying concepts…
…of this code have been in use in PREEMPT_RT for way more than a decade. The code has been refactored several times over the years and this final incarnation has been optimized once again to be as non-intrusive as possible, i.e. the RT specific parts are mostly isolated. […]```
Reminder: that's "bulk of the locking infra", which is a big part of what's currently in #PREEMPT_RT, but other things remain there. IOW: It's a really big step for #REALTIME support in mainline, but not the last. More info expected in a status update this month on @linuxplumbers
