 Description   

If you attempt to mongodump and database with users from MongoDB 2.4 and restore it to MongoDB 2.6 there is no simple upgrade path for the users.

We should have clear warnings in the mongorestore/mongodump page and the upgrade process page about this limitation.

Ideally we should also have a workaround procedure in the docs to assist end users.
