      On the Power8 platform the llite_loop device is not built but the dkms spec files expect that the llite_loop.ko is present. This causes lustre to fail to install using dkms on Power8 clients.

            Comment [ I understand that llite_lloop.ko is not built for Power8 platform due to PAGE_SIZE == 65536, but I wonder if it is ok to simply ignore it in non-Server Lustre builds. ]
