Update regarding the recent linux x86 on OpenBSD amd64 HV, running an older
release of alpine works, 3.21 & 3.22 exhibit the same "vmd 100% CPU"
behavior..
I guess something changed in the linux world and they're using something
differently..

This alpine x86 release works: 3.20.7
I don't know if that additional information helps.

Cheers,
Eric.
