I had posted a patch long time ago, you can see here
http://marc.info/?l=ltp-list&m=132063831228321&w=2

This is a kernel bug, and already fixed in 3.0 and 3.1
stable tree, so, just test the kernel version like this
is not the best method.

What do you think?

Thanks,
Wanlong Gao

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing 
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
