fs: dlm: relax sending to allow receiving
This patch drops additionally the sock_mutex when there is a sending message burst. Since we have acknowledge handling we free sending buffers only when we receive an ack back, but if we are stuck in send_to_sock() looping because dlm sends a lot of messages and we never leave the loop the sending buffer fill up very quickly. We can't receive during this iteration because the sock_mutex is held. This patch will unlock the sock_mutex so it should be possible to receive messages when a burst of sending messages happens. This will allow to free up memory because acks which are already received can be processed. Signed-off-by: Alexander Aring <aahringo@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
