Subject: [ANNOUNCE] v4.19.15-rt12

Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v4.19.15-rt12 patch set. 

Changes since v4.19.15-rt11:

  - The read lock of a rwlock did not preserve the task state. This led
    to a wrong state while using ptrace. Reported by Joe Korty.

Known issues
     - A warning triggered in "rcu_note_context_switch" originated from
       SyS_timer_gettime(). The issue was always there, it is now
       visible. Reported by Grygorii Strashko and Daniel Wagner.

The delta patch against v4.19.15-rt11 is appended below and can be found here:
 
     https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.19/incr/patch-4.19.15-rt11-rt12.patch.xz
