Carsten reported it the other day, but didn't Cc: the list. I've sent
him this to test:

He complained about a stale label and so. 
The RT patch replaced a local-irq-disable with a local-lock which broke.
I intend to get rid of this local-irq-disable on RT, the local-lock is
just duct-tape to make it look the same. If this works for everyone then
I will think of something…
