Subject: [PATCH] dlm: use hlist_for_each_entry_srcu for SRCU protected lists

From: Li RongQing <lirongqing@...du.com>

The connection and node hash tables in DLM are protected by SRCU, but
the code currently uses hlist_for_each_entry_rcu() for traversal.
While this works functionally, it is semantically incorrect and triggers
warnings when RCU lockdep debugging is enabled, as it expects regular
RCU read-side critical sections.

This patch replaces the incorrect macros with hlist_for_each_entry_srcu()
and adds the appropriate lockdep expressions using srcu_read_lock_held()
to ensure consistency with the underlying locking mechanism.
