Subject: sysfs: Add /sys/kernel/realtime entry
From: Clark Williams <williams@redhat.com>
Date: Sat Jul 30 21:55:53 2011 -0500
Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.0/older/patches-5.0.10-rt7.tar.xz
Add a /sys/kernel entry to indicate that the kernel is a
realtime kernel.
Clark says that he needs this for udev rules, udev needs to evaluate
if its a PREEMPT_RT kernel a few thousand times and parsing uname
output is too slow or so.
Are there better solutions? Should it exist and return 0 on !-rt?
