typo - meant "does not cover ALL options"

someone has to write the manpages, there are millions of options
all over the software-world which did it not make into manpages

google for "xfs delaylog" leads to http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ

http://xfs.org/index.php/XFS_FAQ#Q:_I_want_to_tune_my_XFS_filesystems_for_.3Csomething.3E
For mount options, the only thing that will change metadata performance
considerably are the logbsize and delaylog mount options

so how can it be redhat-specific if it is mentioned upstream?
