2.6.32 resynced to completion, but if possible I'd really like to get
2.6.26 running on this box, as it uses openvz, and the 2.6.32 openvz
patches are still pretty green, I think.  Is their anything in the
sysrq-t output in that link of any use?  Are there any patches I should
try, or would it be better to start bisecting between 2.6.26 and 2.6.32
(assuming I can reproduce the problem without the load pattern which
openvz is producing - which I probably can).

Cheers,

Tim.
