Hello,
We were previously able to disable PREEMPT in the kernel configuration,
but the latest kernels now enable it by default and it is no longer
possible to disable it.
Is it possible to let us decide whether to activate PREEMPT or not?
Can you give more details on why you want to be able to deactivate PREEMPT ?
Read https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/7dadeaa6e851e
Currently we use the following revert patch for our non-preempt kernels.
