Either way is fine with me.  I use CONFIG_LBDAF=n, but it isn't a make-or-break 
kernel config option.  Most issues I've seen in testing were solved by Jeff 
Liu's patches.  This part of the test matrix seemed okay, but if Christoph wants 
to get rid of it, that's fine.  The XFS support matrix is rather brutal...

Thanks!
