Yes that my description is not good. 

Actually, I hit the BUG_ON(res->owner != dlm->node_num); during some tests.

When an recovery happened, the lockres' that is owned by the "dead" node is
marked as in recovery and the owner is set as unknown. But note that a lockres
owned by this node can also be marked as in recovery(and owner changed to
unknown). That can happen when a migration for the lockres is in progress with
the "dead" node. see dlm_clean_master_list().

So it's that the owner changed from dlm->node_num to unknown when the
lockres is already on the list.

regards,
wengang.
