The runtime Power Management of CPU topology is not compatible with
PREEMPT_RT:
1. Core cpuidle path disables IRQs.
2. Core cpuidle calls cpuidle-psci.
3. cpuidle-psci in __psci_enter_domain_idle_state() calls
pm_runtime_put_sync_suspend() and pm_runtime_get_sync() which use
spinlocks (which are sleeping on PREEMPT_RT).
Deep sleep modes are not a priority of Realtime kernels because the
latencies might become unpredictable. On the other hand the PSCI CPU
idle power domain is a parent of other devices and power domain
controllers, thus it cannot be simply skipped (e.g. on Qualcomm SM8250).
Disable the idle callbacks in cpuidle-psci and mark the domain as
always on. This is a trade-off between making PREEMPT_RT working and
still having a proper power domain hierarchy in the system.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
