Description:

   This update for rt-tests fixes the following issues:

   Update to version 1.6 (jsc#SLE-12981)

     * New feature to get a snapshot of a running instance of cyclictest
       without stopping it by sending SIGUSR2 to the PID and reading a shared
       memory segment. This is especially useful if running cyclictest over a
       long period of time
     * Add SPDX tags V3
     * New programs to the rt-tests suite
       - queuelat: simulates a network queue checking for latency violations
         in packet processing.
       - cyclicdeadline: used to test the deadline scheduler (SCHED_DEADLINE)
       - deadline_test: tests the deadline scheduler in a cyclictest manner
       - ssdd: a tracer to do a bunch of PTRACE_SINGLESTEPs
