EL6 ships an official, 64-bit only PREEMPT_RT kernel in the separate MRG
package repos (CERN's Scientific Linux distributes binaries).
Fedora, according to Fernando from the PlanetCCRMA project, will never
provide more than one official kernel, but Fernando has maintained
updated PREEMPT_RT kernels for non-EOL Fedora releases for many years
now. Those are considered as official as a package can be by the Fedora
community.
