Subject: [ANNOUNCE] 4.4.137-rt154

Hello RT Folks!

I'm pleased to announce the 4.4.137-rt154 stable release.

This release is just an update to the new stable 4.4.137 version
and no RT specific changes have been made.

I am not sure if I am hunting a ghost. During testing on the CI
testfarm, a spike of around 400us popped up on a x86_64 box
(*). Fortunately, I have the same CPU for testing at home and I
tried very hard to reproduce it. Even Steven was helping out for
setting up the test correctly. But so far I haven't seen it again.
