    Bitmap super has a field nodes, which defines the maximum number
    of nodes the device can use. While reading the bitmap super, if
    the cluster finds out that the number of nodes is > 0:
    1. Requests the md-cluster module.
    2. Calls md_cluster_ops->join(), which sets up clustering such as
       joining DLM lockspace.
    
    Since the first time, the first bitmap is read. After the call
    to the cluster_setup, the bitmap offset is adjusted and the
    superblock is re-read. This also ensures the bitmap is read
    the bitmap lock (when bitmap lock is introduced in later patches)
    
    Questions:
    1. cluster name is repeated in all bitmap supers. Is that okay?
