Thanks. I've updated the three patches, and pushed out the updated
tree. See the top four commits:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rmk/linux.git/log/?h=fixes

Given the timings, I doubt that linux-next will pick this up before
I need to send Linus a pull request before going on vacation for the
remainder of this year:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rmk/linux.git/log/?h=for-linus

However, I also can't guarantee that I'll be able to look at mainline
at the start of next year due to other pressures - and I don't yet
know for how long that's likely to be at the moment.

So, it's either a pull request for the for-linus tag later today,
at some point next year likely not before mid-January and splitting
it up into fixes (for -rc) and the two PREEMPT_RT non-fix patches (for
the next merge window.)
