Subject: [PATCH 25/35] ocfs2/dlm: Fix a race between migrate request and exit domain

From: Sunil Mushran <sunil.mushran@...cle.com>

Patch address a racing migrate request message and an exit domain message.
Instead of blocking exit domains for the duration of the migrate, we ignore
failure to deliver that message. This is because an exiting domain should
not have any active locks and thus has no role to play in the migration.
