3.6.11.5 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Philipp Reisner [ Upstream commit 7c689e63a847316c1b2500f86891b0a574ce7e69 ] With an automatic after split-brain recovery policy of "after-sb-1pri call-pri-lost-after-sb", when trying to drbd_set_role() to R_SECONDARY, we run into a deadlock. This was first recognized and supposedly fixed by 2009-06-10 "Fixed a deadlock when using automatic split brain recovery when both nodes are" replacing drbd_set_role() with drbd_change_state() in that code-path, but the first hunk of that patch forgets to remove the drbd_set_role(). We apparently only ever tested the "two primaries" case.
