piCorePlayer, preempt, latency and cyclictest extension (request)

$

It seems that without using a realtime kernel, the preempt function improves things.
In theory, from version 5.16, this feature improves and becomes "full" (with a lower latency without using a realtime kernel).
I am not a specialist and able to produce exotic kernels every other day.

My point is rather to be able to introduce tools to evaluate the improvements beyond : "it's more transparent... it sounds better".

In short, is it possible, for those who have a build and extension platform, to compile a version of cyclictest in order to have a latency evaluation tool ?
Even if this indicator is not everything (hardware, power supply, buffers, etc. must also be taken into account), it is still correlated with sq.

When will the 5.16 kernel be available in piCorePlayer ? :)

And thanks for the work already done.
