ocfs2:dlm: avoid dlm->ast_lock lockres->spinlock dependency break
Currently we process a dirty lockres with the lockres->spinlock taken. While
during the process, we may need to lock on dlm->ast_lock. This breaks the
dependency of dlm->ast_lock(lock first) and lockres->spinlock(lock second).
This patch fixes the problem.
Since we can't release lockres->spinlock, we have to take dlm->ast_lock
just before taking the lockres->spinlock and release it after lockres->spinlock
is released. And use __dlm_queue_bast()/__dlm_queue_ast(), the nolock version,
in dlm_shuffle_lists(). There are no too many locks on a lockres, so there is no
performance harm.
