We are pleased to announce the next update to our new preempt-rt
series.
 
    - update to 2.6.31-rc6

    - ARM updates (Uwe Kleine-Koenig)

    - OF fixes

    - threaded interrupt crash fix (Linus)

    - locking build fix

    - minor fixes all over the place

There is a known boot problem on PSeries machines which is still
investigated by Will. If you have access to such a beast please help
to get this decoded.

I have not merged one of the proposed fixed for the ARM highmem
problem. We really want someone with such a hardware to have a look
and confirm the fix.
