Subject: [ANNOUNCE] rt-tests-2.5

We haven't had a release in awhile. There aren't a large amount of
changes here but two significant changes include a fix from John Stultz
to prevent threads from being affined when -a isn't set, and an enhancement
from Crystal Wood that adds nanosecond resolution to oslat. Sebastian
Siewior added a change for determining the number of active CPUs on a system, since calling numa_num_task_cpus() seemed to be giving him inaccurate numbers on certain machines. There are also some clean-ups from Leah Leshchinsky and myself.

Enjoy!

Bug reports and patches are always welcome.
