c36258b592 [DLM] block dlm_recv in recovery transition
Introduce a per-lockspace rwsem that's held in read mode by dlm_recv
threads while working in the dlm.  This allows dlm_recv activity to be
suspended when the lockspace transitions to, from and between recovery
cycles.

The specific bug prompting this change is one where an in-progress
recovery cycle is aborted by a new recovery cycle.  While dlm_recv was
processing a recovery message, the recovery cycle was aborted and
dlm_recoverd began cleaning up.  dlm_recv decremented recover_locks_count
on an rsb after dlm_recoverd had reset it to zero.  This is fixed by
suspending dlm_recv (taking write lock on the rwsem) before aborting the
current recovery.

The transitions to/from normal and recovery modes are simplified by using
this new ability to block dlm_recv.  The switch from normal to recovery
mode means dlm_recv goes from processing locking messages, to saving them
for later, and vice versa.  Races are avoided by blocking dlm_recv when
setting the flag that switches between modes.

68c817a1c4 [DLM] rename dlm_config_info fields
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.

e7fd41792f [DLM] The core of the DLM for GFS2/CLVM
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.
