This is an update of task isolation work that was originally done
by
Chris Metcalf [off-list ref] and maintained by him until
November 2017. It is adapted to the current kernel and cleaned up
to
implement its functionality in a more complete and cleaner manner.

I am having problems applying the patchset to today's linux-next.

Which kernel should I be using ?

The patches are against Linus' tree, in particular, commit
a349e4c659609fd20e4beea89e5c4a4038e33a95

Is there any reason to base on that commit in particular?

Generally it's preferred that a series is based on a tag (so either a
release or an -rc kernel), and that the cover letter explains what the
base is. If you can do that in future it'll make the series much easier
to work with.

Thanks,
Mark.
