ocfs2/dlm: Migrate lockres with no locks if it has a reference
o2dlm was not migrating resources with zero locks because it assumed that that
resource would get purged by dlm_thread. However, some usage patterns involve
creating and dropping locks at a high rate leading to the migrate thread seeing
zero locks but the purge thread seeing an active reference. When this happens,
the dlm_thread cannot purge the resource and the migrate thread sees no reason
to migrate that resource. The spell is broken when the migrate thread catches
the resource with a lock.
The fix is to make the migrate thread also consider the reference map.
This usage pattern can be triggered by userspace on userdlm locks and flocks.
