Hello RT-list!

I'm pleased to announce the 4.9.268-rt180 stable release.

You can get this release via the git tree at:

git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rt/linux-stable-rt.git

branch: v4.9-rt
Head SHA1: 638b7f082fa5d11c2b1375f9d32eca9b2d162cd9

Or to build 4.9.268-rt180 directly, the following patches should be applied:
