      [GFS2] Reordering in deallocation to avoid recursive locking · 36327521
      Steven Whitehouse authored
      Despite my earlier careful search, there was a recursive lock left
      in the deallocation code. This removes it. It also should speed up
      deallocation be reducing the number of locking operations which take
      place by using two "try lock" operations on the two locks involved in
      inode deallocation which allows us to grab the locks out of order
      (compared with NFS which grabs the inode lock first and the iopen
      lock later). It is ok for us to fail while doing this since if it
      does fail it means that someone else is still using the inode and
      thus it wouldn't be possible to deallocate anyway.
      
      This fixes the bug reported to me by Rob Kenna.
