-What:		/sys/o2cb symlink
-Date:		Dec 2005
-KernelVersion:	2.6.16
-Contact:	ocfs2-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
-Description:	This is a symlink: /sys/o2cb to /sys/fs/o2cb. The symlink will
-		be removed when new versions of ocfs2-tools which know to look
-		in /sys/fs/o2cb are sufficiently prevalent. Don't code new
-		software to look here, it should try /sys/fs/o2cb instead.
-		See Documentation/ABI/stable/o2cb for more information on usage.
-Users:		ocfs2-tools. It's sufficient to mail proposed changes to

-What:	/sys/o2cb symlink
-When:	January 2010
-Why:	/sys/fs/o2cb is the proper location for this information - /sys/o2cb
-	exists as a symlink for backwards compatibility for old versions of
