Will there also be backports of the kernel modules for cephfs and rbd?
That's probably a make or break feature for anyone using RHEL based
distros as they are not likely to want to upgrade their kernels
manually and maintain them for security fixes. I guess if there are no
kernel modules for cephfs and rbd RHEL could still be used as a osd,
mon or mds.
