PATCH 2/11 ocfs2: give an obvious tip for mismatched cluster names

From: Gang He <[email protected]>
Subject: ocfs2: give an obvious tip for mismatched cluster names

Add an obvious error message, due to mismatched cluster names between on-disk and in the current cluster. We can meet this case during OCFS2 cluster migration.

If we can give the user an obvious tip for why they can not mount the file system after migration, they can quickly fix this mismatch problem.

Second, also move printing ocfs2_fill_super() errno to the front of ocfs2_dismount_volume(), since ocfs2_dismount_volume() will also print its own message.

I looked through all the code of OCFS2 (include o2cb); there is not any place which returns this error. In fact, the function calling path ocfs2_fill_super -> ocfs2_mount_volume -> ocfs2_dlm_init -> dlm_new_lockspace is a very specific one. We can use this errno to give the user a more clear tip, since this case is a little common during cluster migration, but the customer can quickly get the failure cause if there is a error printed. Also, I think it is not possible to add this errno in the o2cb path during ocfs2_dlm_init(), since the o2cb code has been stable for a long time.

We only print this error tip when the user uses pcmk stack, since using the o2cb stack the user will not meet this error.
