Andreas Gruenbacher 8c7b9262a8 gfs2: Give up the iopen glock on contention
When there's contention on the iopen glock, it means that the link count
of the corresponding inode has dropped to zero on a remote node which is
now trying to delete the inode.  In that case, try to evict the inode so
that the iopen glock will be released, which will allow the remote node
to do its job.

When the inode is still open locally, the inode's reference count won't
drop to zero and so we'll keep holding the inode and its iopen glock.
The remote node will time out its request to grab the iopen glock, and
when the inode is finally closed locally, we'll try to delete it
ourself.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
