Dear RT folks!

I'm pleased to announce the v7.2-rc4-rt3 patch set. 

Changes since v7.2-rc4-rt2:

  - Update the 8250 nbcon series as per John
	https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20260720103242.7265-1-john.ogness@linutronix.de/
  - ARM could issue a "sleeping while atomic warning" if user land used
    an "invalid opcode". Patch by Xie Yuanbin.
  - ARM didn't use perform POSIX CPU timers in task_work as it should.
    This was accidentally dropped in v6.18-rc4-rt3. Patch by Karl
    Mehltretter.

Known issues
    - Yoann Congal reported a bit spinlock in dm_exception_table_lock().
