Any on-disk format changes recently?

Any on-disk format changes recently?

[Asdo]

Dear XFS people
I am tracking a nasty bug for which I would need to regress the kernel 
version from 2.6.31 down to 2.6.28 or maybe even 2.6.24.
I have to do this on an important fileserver full of important data on 
XFS filesystems which were created on 2.6.31.
I also need to *write* to the XFS filesystems after regressing the kernel.
Do you see any problems with this? Have there been on-disk format 
changes for XFS since 2.6.24 that could trigger data loss? (or with much 
minor concern, fail the mount?)

Thank you
Asdo

Nothing about the xfs disk format should cause problems when bouncing
between .24 and .31
