Description

I like to see Intel remove a older and dead code, but it need to do more carefully.

    LU-4961 lustre: remove liblustre.h and obd.h from userspace

removes a wire checks for a xattr entries.

-#ifdef LIBLUSTRE_POSIX_ACL
-
-       /* Checks for type posix_acl_xattr_entry */
-       LASSERTF((int)sizeof(posix_acl_xattr_entry) == 8, "found %lld\n",
-                (long long)(int)sizeof(posix_acl_xattr_entry));
-       LASSERTF((int)offsetof(posix_acl_xattr_entry, e_tag) == 0, "found %lld\n",

so any changes in posix_acl_xattr_entry (used in wire protocol) will don't found during lustre compile.
