+Subject: [PATCH] lxc_setup_fs: Create /dev/shm folder if it doesn't exist
+
+When running application containers with lxc-execute, /dev is
+populated only with device entries. Since /dev is a tmpfs mount in
+the container environment, the /dev/shm folder not being present is not
+a sufficient reason for the /dev/shm mount to fail.
+
+Create the /dev/shm directory if not present.
+
+Upstream-status: Accepted
+[https://github.com/lxc/lxc/commit/81e3c9cf8b2f230d761738da28e9dc69fb90ec46]
