bricks. Should that not be done for seek as well? It's the first time I
actually looked at the code of the arbiter xlator, so I might well be
misunderstanding how it works :)
inode-read fops are the fops which read some information from the inode. Like stat/getxattr/read. Even seek falls in that category. It is not sent on arbiter brick...
