[Bug 1261338] Re: lxc-stop and even lxc-stop -k can hang

I vaguely remember discussing this on IRC.

IIRC the case was something in the container getting stuck in D state
because of a kernel bug. In such case, the container couldn't be killed
as anything attempting to do so would get stuck too.

Anyway, this is pretty unfortunate but it's a kernel bug and there's
nothing LXC can do to kill an unkillable process so I think our current
behaviour is fine and the kernel is what should get fixed.
