This is not related to the patch but I don't understand CLOBINVRNT() and
LINVRNT().

# define LINVRNT(exp) LASSERT(exp)
# define LINVRNT(exp) ((void)sizeof !!(exp))

Why do we do the sizeof() instead of just an empty define?  The compiler
calculates the size at compile time and doesn't execute the expression
so it's the same as an empty define so far as I can tell.
