Subject[ANNOUNCE] 4.6.4-rt7
Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v4.6.4-rt7 patch set.

Changes since v4.6.4-rt6:

- Wake up all waiters of del_timer_sync(). Usually there should not
be more than just one waiter (per timer base) but it possible to
gain more.

- Wake up the waiters of del_timer_sync() after dropping the base lock.

Known issues
- CPU hotplug got a little better but can deadlock.

The delta patch against 4.6.4-rt6 is appended below and can be found here:

https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/4.6/incr/patch-4.6.4-rt6-rt7.patch.xz

You can get this release via the git tree at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-rt-devel.git v4.6.4-rt7

The RT patch against 4.6.2 can be found here:
