Subject: 2.4 kernels do not have the ext3 xattr config flag that 2.6 kernels have.
X-Git-Tag: 1.3.4~165
X-Git-Url: https://git.whamcloud.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=8d3f422bc823ec73cebb7479cb20802966a3d304;p=fs%2Flustre-release.git

2.4 kernels do not have the ext3 xattr config flag that 2.6 kernels have.
So it must only warn, not abort.
