[Ocfs2-users] ocfs2 kernel bug in Fedora Core 4 update kernel

[Sunil Mushran]

Not really. The mainline tree is labeled 1.3.x because it is the tree
we add new features too. But bug fixes are applied to both 1.2 and
1.3 separately so it is hard to tell by the version# alone.

This is the fix in the git tree:

    ocfs2: Fix lvb corruption

    Properly ignore LVB flags during a PR downconvert. This avoids an 
illegal
    lvb update.
