[lustre-devel] [PATCH 01/14] lustre: llite: Remove last lockahead old compat

From: Patrick Farrell <farr0186 at gmail.com>

The CEF_NONBLOCK flag in cld_enq_flags is required for the
old Cray-only server release of lockahead.  In the more
recent versions, the required nonblocking behavior (on the
server side) is associated with LDLM_FL_SPECULATIVE, not
with the combination of LDLM_FL_NO_EXPAND and
LDLM_FL_BLOCK_NOWAIT (as was done in the old
implementation).

Now we control 'speculative' or not with the async flag
from userspace.

Now that we've removed OBD_CONNECT_LOCKAHEAD_OLD support
from the client, we should be good to go there.

The existing testing explores both sync and async requests,
and should be enough to verify this is OK.
