I think the peak latency may be caused by downconvert, To downconvert a
EX lock, all dirty data needs be flushed to the disk. So the latency
depends on how much dirty data there is.

I don't have a test case for it. Can you share yours and your perf data?
If there is a starvation, I may need add a pid checking to cluster lock
where not block nested locking in one process.
