Subject: [PATCH 50/51] [DLM] don't overwrite castparam if it's NULL

From: Patrick Caulfield <pcaulfie@...hat.com>

If the castaddr passed to the userland API is NULL then don't overwrite the
existing castparam. This allows a different thread to cancel a lock request and
the CANCEL AST gets delivered to the original thread.

bz#306391 (for RHEL4) refers.
