Can we add this to Documentation/fs/ocfs2.txt, or maybe print a one-time
message on activating the deprecated mode with an intended removal date?
(I'd propose end-of-2014.)

And, perhaps, a compile-time option to disable this earlier, so that
users can choose the stacks they want to build the kernel with.


Thanks,
