My memory was that after Jeff Layton's i_version patches, there wasn't
really a significant performance hit any more, so the ability to turn it
off is no longer useful.
But looking back through Jeff's postings, I don't see him claiming that;
e.g. in:
https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20171222120556.7435-1-jlayton@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nfs/20180109141059.25929-1-jlayton@kernel.org/
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-nfs/1517228795.5965.24.camel@redhat.com/
he reports comparing old iversion behavior to new iversion behavior, but
not new iversion behavior to new noiversion behavior.
