Subject: staging: lustre: remove remote client support
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=341f1f0affed1c24712f37c95bb654b3b33ab2c6;p=linux-beck.git

staging: lustre: remove remote client support

There are several obsolete sub commands for lfs to work with
remote client. We do not support that anymore, and should be
deleted along with any kernel code related to remote client.
