[PATCH v5 0/2] ARM: Remaining PREEMPT_RT bits

this is the last batch I have to enable PREEMPT_RT on the ARM
architecture. It is just sending a signal with disabled interrupts and finally
enabling PREEMPT_RT on ARM.

Is this okay?

    Russell said in aWqZDwxUtaE1yP28 at shell.armlinux.org.uk that #1
    shouldn't be needed anymore because he has changes in his queue
    which should provide effectively the same changes as #1. I can't
    access it. Here is the whole set so it does not get lost.
    I would appreciate if it could hit the next merge window.

  - Dropped applied patches
  - Rebased the remaining one on top of the recent fault handler and branch
    predictor fixes.

  - Allow to enable jump-labels on UP. The UP build does not involve
    stop_machine(). Reworked by Arnd.

  - Instead of forbidding HAVE_GUP_FAST with HIGHPTE enabled just
    disable HIGHPTE on PREEMPT_RT. As Arnd explained, HIGHPTE is rarely
    needed.

  - Don't let ARCH_SUPPORTS_RT depend on HAVE_POSIX_CPU_TIMERS_TASK_WORK
    which in turn depends on !KVM. Since KVM has been removed from ARM
    it is sufficient to unconditionally allow ARCH_SUPPORTS_RT. Noted
    by Arnd.
