Patch queue for v5.4.26-rt17
[ANNOUNCE] v5.4.26-rt17

Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v5.4.26-rt17 patch set.

Changes since v5.4.26-rt16:

  - Revert the "cross CPU pagevec" access with a static key switch. The
    old behaviour has been almost fully restored: There is no cross CPU
    access of the local_lock. Instead the workqueue is scheduled on
    remote CPU like in the !RT case.

  - Make the `sched_clock_timer' timer expire in hardirq. Patch by Ahmed
    S. Darwish.

  - The preempt-lazy code on 32-bit PowerPC used the wrong mask and
    eventually crashed. Patch by Thomas Graziadei.

  - Remove the warning with more than two waiters on completion which
    was woken up via complete_all().

Known issues
     - It has been pointed out that due to changes to the printk code the
       internal buffer representation changed. This is only an issue if tools
       like `crash' are used to extract the printk buffer from a kernel memory
       image.
