Description

Some CRR-N policy fields are used by the ORR/TRR policies in lustre/ptlrpc/nrs_orr.c; this is the result of a repeated typo, but completely impairs the ability of ORR/TRR to perform any sensible scheduling.

Sadly, this would mean that any performance tests that may have been carried out using these policies, since approximately the feature freeze date for 2.4, would have to be repeated if one is interested in obtaining useful benchmarking results.

Sorry, a lower case 'c' can look a lot like a lower case 'o' in an editor window, when using these small font sizes, especially after a few hours of staring at the monitor.
