Subject: [PATCH 0/3] sched, x86, arm64: PREEMPT_RT, FPU and preemption

Hi folks,

This stems from some more v5.13-rt1 breakage on arm64. This time per-CPU access
safety isn't sufficient, we really need to keep preemption disabled.

In a happy accident I stumbled on

  cba08c5dc6dc ("x86/fpu: Make kernel FPU protection RT friendly")

so I packaged what was done there into some common helpers and plastered them
over the problematic areas.

Cheers,
Valentin
