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!
sage
