Description

Problems in LU-4226 indicate that PPC clients may be creating files with an invalid SEQ due to not swabbing the allocated SEQ range correctly. This might relate to older 1.8 clients on a 2.1 server.

It isn't clear if this is still a problem, but needs to be verified, since this problem causes persistent problems in the MDS filesystem.
