Note that we didn’t stop upgrading it: it’s in the mainline kernel source. Red Hat actively remove OCFS2 from the kernel in their distribution (in favour of GFS2) and we just stopped providing external RPMs for OCFS2. In the case of Oracle Linux, we just don’t remove the OCFS2 code from mainline when building our own kernels.
