Oh, sorry, I almost forgot about it.
Please repost the patch, state "RT" next to "PATCH" in the subject line.
Please state which kernels are affected (v4.19 and earlier due to BH
rework) and how this can be tested.
The patch/fix should be included in the affected kernels. The softirq
changes are very intrusive and can not be backported for the RT-stable
kernels.
