Joseph Qi 012572d4fc ocfs2/dlm: fix deadlock when dispatch assert master
The order of the following three spinlocks should be:
dlm_domain_lock < dlm_ctxt->spinlock < dlm_lock_resource->spinlock

But dlm_dispatch_assert_master() is called while holding
dlm_ctxt->spinlock and dlm_lock_resource->spinlock, and then it calls
dlm_grab() which will take dlm_domain_lock.

Once another thread (for example, dlm_query_join_handler) has already
taken dlm_domain_lock, and tries to take dlm_ctxt->spinlock deadlock
happens.
