    ocfs2/dlm: Take inflight reference count for remotely mastered resources too · ff0a522e
    Sunil Mushran authored
    The inflight reference count, in the lock resource, is taken to pin the resource
    in memory. We take it when a new resource is created and release it after a
    lock is attached to it. We do this to prevent the resource from getting purged
    prematurely.
    
    Earlier this reference count was being taken for locally mastered resources
    only. This patch extends the same functionality for remotely mastered ones.
    
    We are doing this because the same premature purging could occur for remotely
    mastered resources if the remote node were to die before completion of the
    create lock.
    
    Fix for Oracle bug#12405575.
