[ANNOUNCE] v5.18-rt11

Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v5.18-rt11 patch set.

Changes since v5.18-rt10:

  - Dropping preempt_check_resched_rt() checks. The checks were added to
    ensure a possible wake up which could be missed if the wakeup
    happens on the same CPU with disabled interrupts. This has been
    reduced to a ksoftirqd wake and is no longer needed because a
    softirq-raise won't wake ksoftirqd if the caller has BH disabled.
    The remaining two caller (based on audit, htb_work_func() and
    dev_cpu_dead()) acquire/release a lock "soon" which provides the
    needed scheduling point.
