First, Please don't send to my kihontech.com account. That's my email
that my customers use and I would really like to keep the spam noise down
an that account. Thanks!

Yep, I was going let you know but it seems you already figured it out :-)
The CONFIG_RT_DEADLOCK_DETECT turns on the trace_lock which makes all
locks run serially. Without CONFIG_RT_DEADLOCK_DETECT, the importance of
the pi_lock of the task is greater. So If something was changed that
didn't properly lock the pi_lock, then there could be problems with the
locking.
So looking at the patch you sent, are you saying that the leak was a false
positive?
I'm just starting to look at -rt7, and will be testing it today.
