But the one true clustering infrastructure hasn't been developed yet. The
upcoming crop of designs need a chance to evolve before a framework is cast
in stone. Perhaps we will eventually end up with a generic harness,
something like a vfs for cluster infrastructure, but in my opinion, we're far
from being able to define that sensibly now. It's better to implement
exactly what a given DFS needs for the time being.

It's done both ways, actually. No new kernel hooks are used in either case.
