Sorry, I thought I answered already. The functions above are useless
with RTAI and RTL as they do not insure real time atomic operations.

For RTAI you must use: hard_cli, hard_sti, hard_save_flags,
hard_restore_flags. There is also hard_save_flags_and_cli. Just include
Linux system.h. For RTL is the same, but the functions names are
different. Sorry but I do not remember them at the moment.

Ciao, Paolo.
