Okay. I am taking a modified version (so it applies) of this into v3.14
tree. Mike also suggested to drop
migrate_disable-pushd-down-in-atomic_dec_and_spin_lo.patch because we
which is basicaly the some thing. And then we have
migrate_disable-pushd-down-in-rt_spin_trylock_irqsav.patch which we
could drop as well for the same reason.
