A deadlock sometimes occurs between dlm_controld closing
a lowcomms connection through configfs and dlm_send looking
up the address for a new connection in configfs.
dlm_controld does a configfs rmdir which calls
dlm_lowcomms_close which waits for dlm_send to
cancel work on the workqueues.
The dlm_send workqueue thread has called
tcp_connect_to_sock which calls dlm_nodeid_to_addr
which does a configfs lookup and blocks on a lock
held by dlm_controld in the rmdir path.
The solution here is to save the node addresses within
the lowcomms code so that the lowcomms workqueue does
not need to step through configfs to get a node address.

Remove the dir hash table (dirtbl), and use
the rsb hash table (rsbtbl) as the resource
directory. It has always been an unnecessary
duplication of information.
This improves efficiency by using a single rsbtbl
lookup in many cases where both rsbtbl and dirtbl
lookups were needed previously.
This eliminates the need to handle cases of rsbtbl
and dirtbl being out of sync.
In many cases there will be memory savings because
the dir hash table no longer exists.

These new callbacks notify the dlm user about lock recovery.
GFS2, and possibly others, need to be aware of when the dlm
will be doing lock recovery for a failed lockspace member.
In the past, this coordination has been done between dlm and
file system daemons in userspace, which then direct their
kernel counterparts. These callbacks allow the same
coordination directly, and more simply.

By pre-allocating rsb structs before searching the hash
table, they can be inserted immediately. This avoids
always having to repeat the search when adding the struct
to hash list.
This also adds space to the rsb struct for a max resource
name, so an rsb allocation can be used by any request.
The constant size also allows us to finally use a slab
for the rsb structs.

This is simpler and quicker than the hash table, and
avoids needing to search the hash list for every new
lkid to check if it's used.

Add an option (disabled by default) to print a warning message
when a lock has been waiting a configurable amount of time for
a reply message from another node. This is mainly for debugging.

If a node is removed from a lockspace, and then added back before the
dlm is notified of the removal, the dlm will not detect the removal
and won't clear the old state from the node. This is fixed by using a
list of added nodes so the membership recovery can detect when a newly
added node is already in the member list.

New features: lock timeouts and time warnings. If the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT
flag is set, then the request/conversion will be canceled after waiting
the specified number of centiseconds (specified per lock). This feature
is only available for locks requested through libdlm (can be enabled for
kernel dlm users if there's a use for it.)
If the new DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN flag is set when creating the lockspace, then
a warning message will be sent to userspace (using genetlink) after a
request/conversion has been waiting for a given number of centiseconds
(configurable per node). The time warnings will be used in the future
to do deadlock detection in userspace.

This patch consolidates the TCP & SCTP protocols for the DLM into a single file
and makes it switchable at run-time (well, at least before the DLM actually
starts up!)
For RHEL5 this patch requires Neil Horman's patch that expands the in-kernel
socket API but that has already been twice ACKed so it should be OK.
The patch adds a new lowcomms.c file that replaces the existing lowcomms-sctp.c
& lowcomms-tcp.c files.

Add a "ci_" prefix to the fields in the dlm_config_info struct so that we
can use macros to add configfs functions to access them (in a later
patch). No functional changes in this patch, just naming changes.

This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required
to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and
can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either
of these two projects.
It implements VAX-style locking modes.
