I finally got to testing this and it looks good.  Pulled the patches 
manually into master.  Sorry it took so long!

For the last two MOSDSubOp, I think those changes should be done as part 
of this ticket

	http://tracker.ceph.com/issues/9961

which will replace the common client replication op to use a fresh message 
type that is properly optimized.  Jianpeng, is this something you might be 
interested in working on?  We talked with Haomai about it during CDS but I 
think he and Yuan Dong will be occupied with the ObjectStore::Transaction 
encoding first, and I would really like to see this done in time for 
hammer (jan 1f freeze).

Thanks!
