Add a new flag, DLM_LSFL_FS, to be used when a file system creates a lockspace.
This flag causes the dlm to use GFP_NOFS for allocations instead of GFP_KERNEL.
(This updated version of the patch uses gfp_t for ls_allocation.)

When conversion deadlock is detected, cancel the conversion and return
EDEADLK to the application. This is a new default behavior where before
the dlm would allow the deadlock to exist indefinately.
The DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag can now be used in a conversion to prevent the
dlm from performing conversion deadlock detection/cancelation on it.
The DLM_LKF_CONVDEADLK flag can continue to be used as before to tell the
dlm to demote the granted mode of the lock being converted if it gets into
a conversion deadlock.

New features: lock timeouts and time warnings. If the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT
flag is set, then the request/conversion will be canceled after waiting
the specified number of centiseconds (specified per lock). This feature
is only available for locks requested through libdlm (can be enabled for
kernel dlm users if there's a use for it.)
If the new DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN flag is set when creating the lockspace, then
a warning message will be sent to userspace (using genetlink) after a
request/conversion has been waiting for a given number of centiseconds
(configurable per node). The time warnings will be used in the future
to do deadlock detection in userspace.

This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required
to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and
can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either
of these two projects.
It implements VAX-style locking modes.
