Ilya Dryomov 117d96a04f libceph: support for balanced and localized reads
OSD-side issues with reads from replica have been resolved in
Octopus.  Reading from replica should be safe wrt. unstable or
uncommitted state now, so add support for balanced and localized
reads.

There are two cases when a read from replica can't be served:

- OSD may silently drop the request, expecting the client to
  notice that the acting set has changed and resend via the usual
  means (handled with t->used_replica)

- OSD may return EAGAIN, expecting the client to resend to the
  primary, ignoring replica read flags (see handle_reply())

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
