Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v5.4.24-rt15 patch set.

Changes since v5.4.24-rt14:

- A warning in kmalloc() has been added. On RT with
CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP enabled it triggers on memory allocations
in atomic context.

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.

The delta patch against v5.4.24-rt14 is appended below and can be found here:

https://cdn.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/5.4/incr/patch-5.4.24-rt14-rt15.patch.xz

You can get this release via the git tree at:
