No, not true. Normal kernels can run realtime applications too. They

But there would be no point in using the realtime LSM or the RT rlimit

Actually no. This is a common misconception.
The point of realtime preemption is to improve realtime performance.
The point of PAM and RT limits and the realtime LSM is to allow
non-root users to run realtime applications.
The two have nothing to do with each other.
