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.
