realtime-lsm is not needed on recent kernels, it does the same thing as
the PAM rlimits. It just lets you run processes with realtime scheduling
and lock memory as a normal user, it will not remove the long code paths
in the kernel that block the CPU when JACK might need it. For that you
need the RT-patch.

Sorry, no idea. I just download the latest kernel from kernel.org, patch
it, and build it with the .config file from the latest Debian kernel
package (modified to turn on full preemption and threaded IRQ handlers)
using make-kpkg.
