cluster/afr: serialize inode locks
Problem: Afr winds inodelk calls without any order, so blocking inodelks from two different mounts can lead to dead lock when mount1 gets the lock on brick-1 and blocked on brick-2 where as mount2 gets lock on brick-2 and blocked on brick-1 Fix: Serialize the inodelks whether they are blocking inodelks or non-blocking inodelks. Non-blocking locks also need to be serialized. Otherwise there is a chance that both the mounts which issued same non-blocking inodelk may endup not acquiring the lock on any-brick. Ex: Mount1 and Mount2 request for full length lock on file f1. Mount1 afr may acquire the partial lock on brick-1 and may not acquire the lock on brick-2 because Mount2 already got the lock on brick-2, vice versa. Since both the mounts only got partial locks, afr treats them as failure in gaining the locks and unwinds with EAGAIN errno.
