Back to replica 3 w/o arbiter. Two fio jobs running (direct=1 and
direct=0), rebooting one node... and VM dmesg looks like:

Root fs is read-only even with 1s ping-timeout...

I really hope I have been idiot for almost a year now and someone
shows what am I doing completely wrong because I dream about joining
the hordes of fellow colleagues who store multiple VMs in gluster and
never had a problem with it. I also suspect the CentOS libvirt version
to be the cause.
