Now that you mention it, I remember those threads on the ML.  What happens
if you use --yes-i-really-mean-it to do those things and then later you try
to map an RBD with an older kernel for CentOS 7.3 or 7.4?  Will that
mapping fail because of the min-client-version of luminous set on the
cluster while allowing CentOS 7.5 clients map RBDs?
