drbd: allow parallel promote/demote actions
We plan to use genl_family->parallel_ops = true in the future, but need to review all possible interactions first. For now, only selectively drop genl_lock() in drbd_set_role(), instead serializing on our own internal resource->conf_update mutex. We now can be promoted/demoted on many resources in parallel, which may significantly improve cluster failover times when fencing is required.
