OpenVZ project has released a new RHEL6 based kernel.

Changes
=======
(since 042stab056.11):
* Rebase to RHEL6.2 kernel-2.6.32-220.23.1.el6 kernel (security and bug 
fixes)
* Note that CONFIG_OPENVSWITCH is not set in this kernel
* [fuse] fuse_flush() must wait till writeback is completed (PSBM-13697)
* [fuse] synchronous close has been reimplemented
* [fuse] file size handling has been corrected (PSBM-13216)
* [ubc/net] potential infinite loop fixed in case network code
* [pid namespaces] missing BSD_PROCESS_ACCT ifdef added. Required to 
compile kernel without CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT kernel option (bug #2273)
* [fairsched] vmstat floating point operation fixed: idle scaling has 
been enhanced once again (PCLIN-30773)
* [scheduler] idle time should not be accounted on "possible" but 
offline cpus
* [mm] fix a corner case in memory reclaimer - guarantee to invoke OOM 
in case of no progress (PCLIN-30976)
* [cpt] Fedora 17 CTs should not migrate to older kernels without mount 
namespaces support, other CTs should migrate fine (PSBM-13534)

scheduler policy set (bug #2283)
* [fuse] PCS special files i_size handling has been fixed in case
