ocfs2: update comments in masklog.h
In the mainline ocfs2 code, the interface for masklog is in files under /sys/fs/o2cb/masklog, but the comments in fs/ocfs2/cluster/masklog.h reference the old /proc interface. They are out of date. This patch modifies the comments in cluster/masklog.h, which also provides a bash script example on how to change the log mask bits.
