CDPN's are already removed from GFS2, and probably don't have much chance
of getting back in since the linux-kernel folks really have the say.

Given that CDPN's are already in GFS1 and won't ever be removed from
there, I don't see any reason not to add a nodeid option.  GFS2 will need
a different approach regardless of whether nodeid is added to GFS1 or not.
