There seems to be a core dump in Gluster/NFS, see Venky's email from
today. It is unclear to me if that is something spurious or
reproducible. Fixing it before branching would be nice, but if it is
spurious we can backport the fix later.

In gfapi land things look stable enough now. There are some pending
changes for the Upcall Infrastructure feature that are highly
recommended to get merged before branching. We can backport them though,
if you do not want to delay branching.
