Hi All,
        Lustre based on zfs need a change readdir page wire protocol.

lu_dirent->lde_hash maintains iterator cookie. with zfs - zap cursor API 
we have 64bit cookie (ref. zap_cursor_serialize()). So we need to change 
this lde_hash to 64 bit.
This changes layout of readdir pages which is transmitted on wire, so we 
need to merge it into head asap.

I have posted patch on bugzilla : 
https://bugzilla.lustre.org/attachment.cgi?id=15817&action=edit

plz post your comment there.

Thanks,
Pravin.
