[Gluster-users] writing to fuse device failed: No such file or directory

Yes, I'm talking about the "writing to fuse device failed:" warning. This
is a harmless warning. I have discussed it with Csaba.
I'm not aware of the other messages. If heal messages are one of them, have
requested Karthik from the AFR team to look into it.
The rest of the concerns raised are replied in that mail thread. I hope
these are all the issues seen with the upgrade to the latest.
