It's the convention I've used since first introducing the CRC code.
dir2 means it handles just dir2 format, dir3 means it handles either
the dir2 or the CRC enabled format.
That said, this goes away in the directory ops vectorisation patch
set, when dir2 means "handles dir2 format" and dir3 means "handles
only dir3 format"....

None, really. This is just a mechanical change to fix the bug, not a
change of logic. This is changed to the direct method in the dir ops
vectorisation series....
