4.4.21-rt31-rc1 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior It has been pointed out by tglx that on UP the non-RT task could spin its entire time slice because the lock owner is preempted. This won't happen on !RT. So we back to "chill" if we can't cond_resched() did not work.
