Does anybody know what the TimeSys patches actually do?  All this
article really says is that they provide additional "real-time
technology."  Do they add APIs?  Do they reduce the maximum latency of
system calls?  Are they useful at all for DAWs?

All I can find on their website is:
Kernel Patches

    * Processor-specific patches
    * KGDB support patches
    * Memory Technology Device (MTD) fixes
    * Miscellaneous small fixes
    * Cygwin-specific patches

Doesn't sound very useful, except to embedded developers.
