It was an obvious fix, hardly impossible for it to be done twice. This happens all the time in the kernel. Especially if for some reason a fix doesn't make it in. This fix didn't make it in simply because it wasn't one of my normal branches I push to Ingo, and it was at a time that we all were quite busy and it was simply overlooked. But yes, the RT scheduler (and the scheduler itself) always attracts newcomers, and we welcome them. Nothing curious or unusually about it. -- Steve
