So it might not have been obvious, but there is a 4.19-rt resolution
buried in there in linux-stable-rt

    commit e51f31ad716a485ed5bada8d367df60d6a99b9ac
    Merge: 3cfcdc4d74dc 0df021b2e841
    Author: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt at goodmis.org>

        Merge tag 'v4.19.47' into v4.19-rt
        
        This is the 4.19.47 stable release
        
         Conflicts:
            drivers/char/random.c
            kernel/irq_work.c

...and since the 4.18.42 irq_work.c is identical to 4.19.47, we can just
re-use Steve's conflict resolution by wholesale importing the 4.19-rt
version of his file after his merge.

Paul.
