3.2.64-rc1 review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joseph Qi <joseph...@huawei.com>

commit 5760a97c7143c208fa3a8f8cad0ed7dd672ebd28 upstream.

There is a deadlock case which reported by Guozhonghua:
  https://oss.oracle.com/pipermail/ocfs2-devel/2014-September/010079.html

This case is caused by &res->spinlock and &dlm->master_lock
misordering in different threads.

It was introduced by commit 8d400b81cc83 ("ocfs2/dlm: Clean up refmap
helpers").  Since lockres is new, it doesn't not require the
&res->spinlock.  So remove it.

Fixes: 8d400b81cc83 ("ocfs2/dlm: Clean up refmap helpers")
