      ocfs2: Move orphan scan work to ocfs2_wq. · 40f165f4
      Tao Ma authored
      We used to let orphan scan work in the default work queue,
      but there is a corner case which will make the system deadlock.
      The scenario is like this:
      1. set heartbeat threadshold to 200. this will allow us to have a
         great chance to have a orphan scan work before our quorum decision.
      2. mount node 1.
      3. after 1~2 minutes, mount node 2(in order to make the bug easier
         to reproduce, better add maxcpus=1 to kernel command line).
      4. node 1 do orphan scan work.
      5. node 2 do orphan scan work.
      6. node 1 do orphan scan work. After this, node 1 hold the orphan scan
         lock while node 2 know node 1 is the master.
      7. ifdown eth2 in node 2(eth2 is what we do ocfs2 interconnection).
      
      Now when node 2 begins orphan scan, the system queue is blocked.
      
      The root cause is that both orphan scan work and quorum decision work
      will use the system event work queue. orphan scan has a chance of
      blocking the event work queue(in dlm_wait_for_node_death) so that there
      is no chance for quorum decision work to proceed.
      
      This patch resolve it by moving orphan scan work to ocfs2_wq.

      fs/ocfs2/dlm: Add missing spin_unlock · 6469272c
      Julia Lawall authored
      Add a spin_unlock missing on the error path.  Unlock as in the other code
      that leads to the leave label.
      
      The semantic match that finds this problem is as follows:
