[ANNOUNCE] v5.10-rc1-rt1

[ANNOUNCE] v5.10-rc1-rt1

[Sebastian Andrzej Siewior]

Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v5.10-rc1-rt1 patch set. 

Changes since v5.9.1-rt20

  - Rebase to v5.10-rc1.

Known issues
     - It has been pointed out that due to changes to the printk code the
       internal buffer representation changed. This is only an issue if tools
       like `crash' are used to extract the printk buffer from a kernel memory
       image.

You can get this release via the git tree at:

    git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v5.10-rc1-rt1

The RT patch against v5.10-rc1 can be found here:

"blk-mq: Use llist_head for blk_cpu_done" needs a minor adjustment, as
