[ Upstream commit 76d62f24db07f22ccf9bc18ca793c27d4ebef721 ] Wei Wang reported seeing priority inversion caused latencies caused by contention on pmsg_lock, and suggested it be switched to a rt_mutex. I was initially hesitant this would help, as the tasks in that trace all seemed to be SCHED_NORMAL, so the benefit would be limited to only nice boosting. However, another similar issue was raised where the priority inversion was seen did involve a blocked RT task so it is clear this would be helpful in that case.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
