I think ceph-disk needs to have an option (via ceph.conf) that will avoid creating a journal [partition], and we need to make sure that the journal behavior is all conditional on the journal symlink being present. Do you mind opening a bug for this? It could condition itself off of the osd objectstore option (we'd need to teach ceph-diska bout the varoius backends), or we could add a secondary option (awkware to configure), or we could call into ceph-osd with something like 'ceph-osd -i 0 --does-backend-need-journal' so that a call into the backend code itself can control things. The latter is probably ideal.
