This is going to wreak some havoc as the old tools would obviously
misrepresent this, but the new tools also cannot assume blindly
this change is in place, since people tend to stick to old
lustre modules for a long time in production for various reasons,
while the tools might get upgraded.
So I wonder if we should include some sort of a hint somewhere that
the lctl could read and see which format it's going to convert from.
Either that or we'd need to play with some heuristic in the tools
to observe where the leading zeros are (in little ending) in one
and the other case (if the year is not quite 2038 yet) and
make a decision based on that.
