Dear RT Folks,

I'm pleased to announce the 3.0.6-rt17 release.

After chasing weird RCU stalls and hung task messages for quite some
time a massive collaborative effort was able to track down and fix
this showstopper. Explanation from the changelog:

snip.

+static int __init dmi_disable_hpet_msi(const struct dmi_system_id *d)
+{
+	hpet_msi_disable = 1;
+}


I just noticed this from watching build output after upgrading from rt14, shouldn't it return a value?

Also, I sent something about memory cgroups to linux-rt-users, but never received a reply, is that ml still used?

Cheers,
Maarten
