Subject: [PATCH 1/2] GFS2: remove iopen glocks from cache on failed deletes

When a file gets deleted on GFS2, if a node can't get an exclusive lock on the
file's iopen glock, it punts on actually freeing up the space, because another
node is using the file.  When it does this, it needs to drop the iopen glock
from its cache so that the other node can get an exclusive lock on it. Now,
gfs2_delete_inode() sets GL_NOCACHE before dropping the shared lock on the
iopen glock in preparation for grabbing it in the exclusive state.  Since the
node needs the glock in the exclusive state, dropping the shared lock from the
cache doesn't slow down the case where no other nodes are using the file.

Subject: [PATCH 2/2] GFS2: Fix error path in gfs2_lookup_by_inum()

In the (impossible, except if there is fs corruption) error path
in gfs2_lookup_by_inum() if the call to gfs2_inode_refresh()
fails, it was leaving the function by calling iput() rather
than iget_failed(). This would cause future lookups of the same
inode to block forever.

This patch fixes the problem by moving the call to gfs2_inode_refresh()
into gfs2_inode_lookup() where iget_failed() is part of the error path
already. Also this cleans up some unreachable code and makes
gfs2_set_iop() static.
