[Ocfs2-devel] [PATCH] ocfs2: Fix locking for res->tracking and dlm->tracking_list

Hi Ashish,

I think we should get 'res->spinlock' before getting 'dlm->track_lock'
such as in __dlm_do_purge_lockres(). But your patch reverse the locking
sequence as we will get 'res->spinlock' in dlm_print_one_lock_resource()
which may cause 'ABBA' deadlock.

thanks,
Jun
