Subject: [PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 61/86] ocfs2/dlm: fix deadlock when dispatch assert master

3.19.8-ckt9 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joseph Qi <joseph.qi@...wei.com>

commit 012572d4fc2e4ddd5c8ec8614d51414ec6cae02a upstream.

The order of the following three spinlocks should be:
dlm_domain_lock < dlm_ctxt->spinlock < dlm_lock_resource->spinlock

But dlm_dispatch_assert_master() is called while holding
dlm_ctxt->spinlock and dlm_lock_resource->spinlock, and then it calls
dlm_grab() which will take dlm_domain_lock.

Once another thread (for example, dlm_query_join_handler) has already
taken dlm_domain_lock, and tries to take dlm_ctxt->spinlock deadlock
happens.
