Paul,

For debian-based systems, we need to install gfs2-utils (possibly 
gfs2-tools on older systems) ... this gets mkfs.gfs2 installed.
And on at least one recent  Ubuntu system I can see the gfs2 kernel 
module installed by default in
/lib/modules/3.8.0-21-generic/kernel/fs/gfs2/gfs2.ko (it is also in a 
similar place for one SuSE system I checked, and not there for an older 
Ubuntu system).
But the /sys/kernel/debug/gfs2 that qa/654 is looking for is not present 
on the systems I've checked ... so I think as a first step the guard for 
kernel support needs some tweaking ... could we use the results of $sudo 
modinfo gfs2?
If I comment out that test, qa/654 passes on Ubuntu 13.04.
