[Cluster-devel] [GFS2 PATCH] Reduce size of version numbers

[Bob Peterson]

Hi,

This patch changes the version number values in three
structures from 64-bit to 16-bit.  These values are
never compared in a greater-than or less-than, so
wrap-around shouldn't be an issue.  Eventually we can
get rid of these altogether in favor of a bit or two.
The locations were moved to facilitate intelligent data
packing by the compiler.

Regards,

Bob Peterson
