9ab35b2f22 o Update doc to mention successfully tested Raspberry Pi 3
o Remove reference to realtime kernels: they are typically creating more
  trouble than benefit (8kHz interrupts keeping one core busy for 18% for
  instance).
o Point to the configuration option in cmdline.txt to reserve one
  CPU for display refresh.

333397e815 o Fix platform-dependent assumption of lenght of off_t. Apparently
in some contexts it is considered 64 bits on the Pi, which doesn't go
  well with a fixed sscanf() integer-width pattern. Tie it to a fixed
  type. Found by Maxime Journaux working on a nodejs binding.
