I don't know exactly how, but in some cases, a dir record is not removed, or a new one is created when it shouldn't be. The result is that the dir node lookup returns a master node where the rsb does not exist. In this case, The master node will repeatedly return -EBADR for requests, and the lock requests will be stuck. Until all possible ways for this to happen can be eliminated, a simple and effective way to recover from this situation is for the supposed master node to send a standard remove message to the dir node when it receives a request for a resource it has no rsb for.
