would people mind a slow osd restart during luminous upgrade?

Hello, ceph operators...

Several times in the past we've had to do some ondisk format conversion 
during upgrade which mean that the first time the ceph-osd daemon started 
after upgrade it had to spend a few minutes fixing up it's ondisk files.  
We haven't had to recently, though, and generally try to avoid such 
things.

However, there's a change we'd like to make in FileStore for luminous (*) 
and it would save us a lot of time and complexity if it was a one-shot 
update during the upgrade.  I would probably take in the neighborhood of 
1-5 minutes for a 4-6TB HDD.  That means that when restarting the daemon 
during the upgrade the OSD would stay down for that period (vs the usual 
<1 restart time).

Does this concern anyone?  It probably means the upgrades will take longer 
if you're going host by host since the time per host will go up.

* eliminate 'snapdir' objects, replacing them with a head object + 
whiteout.
