Just another question about xfs - I'll check this myself once I get back 
from my holiday but I thought that someone might already know the answer.

If an sl53 (x86_64) box has the xfs kernel modules (kernel-module-xfs*) 
installed and is upgraded to sl54 will those old xfs modules cause any 
problems?  They old ones were dkms things or am I totally mis-remembering?

[ I'm not worried about the 32-bit boxes 'cos I don't think we use xfs on 
any machines installed with the 32-bit version - I hope... ]
