Subject: [PATCH] dlm: fix shutdown cleanup

Fixes a regression from commit 0f8e0d9a317406612700426fad3efab0b7bbc467,
"dlm: allow multiple lockspace creates".

An extraneous 'else' slipped into a code fragment being moved from
release_lockspace() to dlm_release_lockspace().  The result of the
unwanted 'else' is that dlm threads and structures are not stopped
and cleaned up when the final dlm lockspace is removed.  Trying to
create a new lockspace again afterward will fail with
"kmem_cache_create: duplicate cache dlm_conn" because the cache
was not previously destroyed.
