[LU-7891] delete "lctl lov_getconfig" and "jt_obd_lov_getconfig()" and use of lov_desc on client

Thu, 10 Nov 2016 19:15:55 +0000

There is a bunch of lov code that is obsolete on the client, since the client does not have access to the uptodate lov_desc from the MDS. It would be better to just delete the use of lov_desc on the client completely from the lov module, since the MDS now only uses the lod module.

This includes several files in /proc, and the "lctl lov_getconfig" command. It is used by one sanity.sh test, but that could be replaced by "lfs getstripe" on the parent directory. It is already listed under "obsolete commands" in the lctl help output.
