Subject: [PATCH 1/4] GFS2: put glock reference in error patch of read_rindex_entry

From: Bob Peterson <rpeterso@...hat.com>

This patch fixes the error path of function read_rindex_entry
so that it correctly gives up its glock reference in cases where
there is a race to re-read the rindex after gfs2_grow.
