Hey guys.

I'm being haunted by this terrible problem: waiting for lo to become 
free. This happens when I try to shut down a VE, then the load average 
skyrockets and the system grinds to a standstill until I pull the power 
plug.

This was reported in 2005, and was reopened and fixed in 2008:
http://bugzilla.openvz.org/show_bug.cgi?id=846

Question: Is this fix in the 2.6.24 branch? We must use 2.6.24 for our 
RAID controllers, and we definitely suffer from this bug.
