[GFS2] Fix two races relating to glock callbacks

Browse source 
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.
