Github user jburwell commented on the issue: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/pull/1762 @serg38 my reading of the code is that only the most recently attempted DML will be re-executed. Furthermore, retrying without refreshing the base data can also lead to data corruption. The best thing to do in a case of a dead lock is to fail and rollback due to the risk of data corruption.
