Hi Cephers,

I am proposing drop the support of i386. as we don't compile Ceph with
any i386 gitbuilder now[1] and hence don't test the i386 builds on
sepia on a regular basis. Also, based on the assumption that people
don't use i386 in production, I think we can drop it from the minimum
hardware document[2]?

And we won't explicitly disable the i386 build in code if we decide to
drop the i386 support, as we always try to be portable if possible.
But just don't claim the i386 as the officially supported arch
anymore.

What do you think?

I think no one care about 32-bit server part, but client pieces should keep compatibility for few more versions, at least. You never know what kind of grue luking under the client side.
