Sunil Mushran a191282601 ocfs2: Prevent a livelock in dlmglue
There is possibility of a livelock in __ocfs2_cluster_lock(). If a node were
to get an ast for an upconvert request, followed immediately by a bast,
there is a small window where the fs may downconvert the lock before the
process requesting the upconvert is able to take the lock.

This patch adds a new flag to indicate that the upconvert is still in
progress and that the dc thread should not downconvert it right now.

Wengang Wang <wen.gang.wang@oracle.com> and Joel Becker
<joel.becker@oracle.com> contributed heavily to this patch.
