ocfs2: Prevent a livelock in dlmglue There is possibility of a livelock in __ocfs2_cluster_lock(). If a node were to get an ast for an upconvert request, followed immediately by a bast, there is a small window where the fs may downconvert the lock before the process requesting the upconvert is able to take the lock. This patch adds a new flag to indicate that the upconvert is still in progress and that the dc thread should not downconvert it right now. Wengang Wang <wen.gang.wang@oracle.com> and Joel Becker <joel.becker@oracle.com> contributed heavily to this patch.
