 Greetings,

 We're gearing up to test v0.52 (specifically the RBD stuff) on our
cluster. After reading this series of posts about rbd format 2 patches
I began wondering if we should start testing these patches as well or
not. To put it simply, what I'd like to know is:

 Is it enough to use the 3.6 vanilla kernel client to take full
advantage of the rbd changes in v0.52 (i.e. new RBD cloning features)?

 Do we have any benefits from applying any of these patches on top of
v3.6 and using "format 2", assuming that we stick to v0.52 on the
server, or is this strictly v0.53 and beyond stuff?


 I apologize if this is a dumb question, but by looking at the v0.52
changelog, at doc/rbd/* and the list, it doesn't seem clear how this
fits with v0.52.

 Thanks in advance

Best regards

Cláudio
