Subject: [ANNOUNCE] v4.9.9-rt6

Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v4.9.9-rt6 patch set. 

Changes since v4.9.9-rt5:

  - The timer softirq was woken up under certain circumstances where it
    could have been avoided. Patch by Haris Okanovic.

  - Alex Goins noticed that a GPL only symbol will be forced on -RT
    which is not the case on !RT configurations. This has been resolved.

Known issues
	- CPU hotplug got a little better but can deadlock.

The delta patch against v4.9.9-rt6 is appended below and can be found here:
 
     https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.9/incr/patch-4.9.9-rt5-rt6.patch.xz

You can get this release via the git tree at:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v4.9.9-rt6

The RT patch against v4.9.9 can be found here:
