Subject: [PATCH 05/16] GFS2: Increase buffer size for glocks and glstats debugfs files

As per Al Viro's suggestion, this increases the buffer size used
for these two files. This provides a speed up of slightly less than
8x (i.e. proportional to the buffer size) for cases when we have
large numbers of glocks.
