Subject: OVT: stop building vmsync driver on kernels above 3.0.0
X-Git-Tag: 2012.12.26-958366~32

OVT: stop building vmsync driver on kernels above 3.0.0

On newer kernels vmbackup plugin will use FIFREEZE/FITHAW ioctls to
quiesce filesystems so vmsync is not needed and given that it does
not even build on 3.6 it is easier to simply disable it.
