[GFS2] Fix two races relating to glock callbacks
One of the races relates to referencing a variable while not holding its protecting spinlock. The patch simply moves the test inside the spin lock. The other races occurs when a demote to unlocked request occurs during the time a demote to shared request is already running. This of course only happens in the case that the lock was in the exclusive mode to start with. The patch adds a check to see if another demote request has occurred in the mean time and if it has, then it performs a second demote. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
