i've been using encrypted swap over loopdev using the new cryptoapi
patches. i just built a 2.4.10-pre12 kernel and i got a panic doing
mkswap on the loopdev. the mkswap process becomes unkillable after this
and never finishes. this is repeatable everytime. i've had no problems
whatsoever until this kernel even under high load.. any ideas? :>
