Subject: [2.6.27-rc3] XFS logbsize/logbufs option problem...

When the logbsize (eg =256k) or logbufs (eg =8) XFS mount options are
present in /etc/fstab, the filesystem fails to mount r/w with
2.6.27-rc3, so stays read-only.

This seems to be a regression over 2.6.27-rc1 (didn't check -rc2). I'm
testing on Ubuntu Intrepid x86-64, thus filesystem was constructed
with xfsprogs 2.9.8-1.

Have you seen encountered this issue at all?

Many thanks,
Daniel

Yes, this is a known issues, and I have a patch for it that I'm about
to resubmit after fixing up some comments.
