GFS2: Merge lock_dlm module into GFS2 This is the big patch that I've been working on for some time now. There are many reasons for wanting to make this change such as: o Reducing overhead by eliminating duplicated fields between structures o Simplifcation of the code (reduces the code size by a fair bit) o The locking interface is now the DLM interface itself as proposed some time ago. o Fewer lookups of glocks when processing replies from the DLM o Fewer memory allocations/deallocations for each glock o Scope to do further optimisations in the future (but this patch is more than big enough for now!) Please note that (a) this patch relates to the lock_dlm module and not the DLM itself, that is still a separate module; and (b) that we retain the ability to build GFS2 as a standalone single node filesystem with out requiring the DLM. This patch needs a lot of testing, hence my keeping it I restarted my -git tree after the last merge window. That way, this has the maximum exposure before its merged. This is (modulo a few minor bug fixes) the same patch that I've been posting on and off the the last three months and its passed a number of different tests so far.

Allows a cluster of computers to simultaneously use a block device
that is shared between them (with FC, iSCSI, NBD, etc...). GFS reads
and writes to the block device like a local filesystem, but also uses
a lock module to allow the computers coordinate their I/O so
filesystem consistency is maintained. One of the nifty features of
GFS is perfect consistency -- changes made to the filesystem on one
machine show up immediately on all other machines in the cluster.

[GFS2] No lock_nolock This patch merges the lock_nolock module into GFS2 itself. As well as removing some of the overhead of the module, it also means that its now impossible to build GFS2 without a lock module (which would be a pointless thing to do anyway). We also plan to merge lock_dlm into GFS2 in the future, but that is a more tricky task, and will therefore be a separate patch.

The "nolock" lock module is now built in to GFS2 by default. If
you want to use the DLM, be sure to enable HOTPLUG and IPv4/6
networking.
