It should work.

I have already committed the patches to ocfs2-tools.
So you can get from
git clone git://oss.oracle.com/git/ocfs2-tools.git
I guess there is no release for it yet.

No need for fsck.ocfs2.
Just do tunefs.ocfs2 --fs-features=discontig-bg /dev/sdx(which means you 
have to umount the volume from all the nodes first) and mount it again 
and it should work. any problem, please let us know. Thanks.

Make sure you see 'discontig-bg' in the output of following cmd.
echo 'stats'|debugfs.ocfs2 /dev/sdx|grep Incompat
