The Microchip ENC28J60 SPI Ethernet driver schedules a work item from the interrupt handler because accesses to the SPI bus may sleep. On PREEMPT_RT (which forces interrupt handling into threads) this old-fashioned approach unnecessarily increases latency because an interrupt results in first waking the interrupt thread, then scheduling the work item. So, a double indirection to handle an interrupt. Avoid by converting the driver to modern threaded interrupt handling.

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.
