This is the RT stable review cycle of patch 3.0.14-rt32-rc1.

Please scream at me if I messed something up. Please test the patches too.

Well the error i described in other mails to this list are still persistent:
* ksoftirq running wild due to fec ethernet tx interrupt.

I would be surprised if it went away, as none of these patches would
have touched that code.

Does patch nr 2 possibly fix the error reboot fails with "Unable to execute 
shutdown: Bad address". The error occurs not to often so it is hard to say if 
this 3.0.14-rt32 is still showing this error.

Honestly I don't know about that error. But wait queues have been a
thorn in -rt for a while, and this patch fixes a few areas I'm sure.
That being one of them, I guess you'll find out if you see the bug
again ;-)
