Keep dmclock as a git subtree or switch it to a git submodule?

A couple years ago we posed the question to ceph-devel of whether to
integrate the dmclock library into ceph as a git submodule or git
subtree, and we ended up choosing a git subtree.

As far as I know it is the only git subtree in the ceph repo. Every
other external library is brought into ceph as a git submodule.

git subtrees have some peculiarities that take some time to get used to
and invite a certain set of mistakes.

Danny Al-Gaaf has submitted a PR to switch dmclock to a git submodule.

I support it but thought it would be best to throw the issue back to
ceph-devel for comments.
