I am trying to state my point more clearly...
The issue case you are trying to fix is:
Process A
take inode lock (phase1)
...
<<< race window (phase2, Process B)
...
take inode lock again (phase3)

Deadlock happens because Process B in phase2 and Process A in phase3
are waiting for each other.
So you are trying to fix it by making phase3 finish without really doing
__ocfs2_cluster_lock, then Process B can continue either.
Let us bear in mind that phase1 and phase3 are in the same context and
executed in order. That's why I think there is no need to check if locked
by myself in phase1.
If phase1 finds it is already locked by myself, that means the holder
is left by last operation without dec holder. That's why I think it is a bug
instead of a recursive lock case.
