Subject: [PATCH 07/11] GFS2: Add some useful messages

The following patch adds a message to indicate when barriers have been
disabled due to a block device which doesn't support them. You could
already tell this via the mount options in /proc/mounts, but all the
other filesystems also log a message at the same time.

Also, the same mechanisms are used to indicate when the lock
demote interface has been used (only ever used for debugging)
which is a request from our support team.
