With LiS compiled in 64-bit mode I see the following when insmoding:
mknod /dev/loop.1: error 582
mknod /dev/loop.2: error 582
mknod /dev/loop.9: error 582
mknod /dev/loop.255: error 582
I there any way to fix it? Was it fixed in 2.19 ?

LiS does a simple syscall to make the node (gets into sys_mknod()
in fs/namei.c in the kernel code).  Unfortunately, something within
that is returning a non-standard error code.  If you are working
with a kernel built on your target, you can start there with
debugging prints.

This may be a selinux thing as security_inode_create() is called.
You might want to narrow that down to by turning off security
for one boot and seeing what happens.

2.19.0 includes one code change near this (from Paul Landay's
patches), but you are beyond his change if you are getting this
error.
