Now that you bump to 4.14.18_rt15-1, too and since I read the diff

https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/diff/?h=linux-rt&id=aee56edc0ffc7c315d462ae337f446b7ed8007c5

I notice that my config "suffers" from a spectre 2 "misconfiguration".

[rocketmouse at archlinux ~]$ zgrep CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON /proc/config.gz 
# CONFIG_BPF_JIT_ALWAYS_ON is not set

https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/856694/

Apart from this they are identical kernels with equal patches.

[rocketmouse at archlinux linux-rt]$ diff config config-4.14.18-rt15-1-rt-securityink

< CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-rt"

> CONFIG_LOCALVERSION="-1-rt-securityink"

[snip, apart from the config and name related diffs, not a single
relevant diff]
