We apply patch for LU2800 & LU5237 (b2d09eb6,diff?) to git b1_8 branch.
A couple optional patches for LU3067 & LU3596 are available. It has
become difficult to build 1.8 clients with recent redhat kernels (they
tend backport fixes from the 3.10 kernels).
We have not moved to newer client version because of support for legacy
OS and (perceived) client performance issues with 2.1/2.4/2.5 versions.
IMO the b2_5 client issues appear to be resolved so that's likely our
upgrade path.
Note it appears the b1_8 branch was closed last month and all open pull
requests were abandonded.
