+Subject: [PATCH 15/62] softirq: Wake ktimers thread also in softirq.
+Origin: https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/6.1/older/patches-6.1.69-rt21.tar.xz
+
+If the hrtimer is raised while a softirq is processed then it does not
+wake the corresponding ktimers thread. This is due to the optimisation in the
+irq-exit path which is also used to wake the ktimers thread. For the other
+softirqs, this is okay because the additional softirq bits will be handled by
+the currently running softirq handler.
+The timer related softirq bits are added to a different variable and rely on
+the ktimers thread.
+As a consuequence the wake up of ktimersd is delayed until the next timer tick.
+
+Always wake the ktimers thread if a timer related softirq is pending.
