GFS2: Use RCU for glock hash table
This has a number of advantages:
- Reduces contention on the hash table lock
- Makes the code smaller and simpler
- Should speed up glock dumps when under load
- Removes ref count changing in examine_bucket
- No longer need hash chain lock in glock_put() in common case
There are some further changes which this enables and which
we may do in the future. One is to look at using SLAB_RCU,
and another is to look at using a per-cpu counter for the
per-sb glock counter, since that is touched twice in the
lifetime of each glock (but only used at umount time).
