staging/lustre/clio: cl_lock simplification
In this patch, the cl_lock cache is eliminated. cl_lock is turned into a cacheless data container for the requirements of locks to complete the IO. cl_lock is created before I/O starts and destroyed when the I/O is complete. cl_lock depends on LDLM lock to fulfill lock semantics. LDLM lock is attached to cl_lock at OSC layer. LDLM lock is still cacheable. Two major methods are supported for cl_lock: clo_enqueue and clo_cancel. A cl_lock is enqueued by cl_lock_request(), which will call clo_enqueue() methods for each layer to enqueue the lock. At the LOV layer, if a cl_lock consists of multiple sub cl_locks, each sub locks will be enqueued correspondingly. At OSC layer, the lock enqueue request will tend to reuse cached LDLM lock; otherwise a new LDLM lock will have to be requested from OST side. cl_lock_cancel() must be called to release a cl_lock after use. clo_cancel() method will be called for each layer to release the resource held by this lock. At OSC layer, the reference count of LDLM lock, which is held at clo_enqueue time, is released. LDLM lock can only be canceled if there is no cl_lock using it.
