md-cluster: fix hanging issue while a new disk adding
The commit
1bbe254e4336 ("md-cluster: check for timeout while a
new disk adding") is correct in terms of code syntax but not
suite real clustered code logic.
When a timeout occurs while adding a new disk, if recv_daemon()
bypasses the unlock for ack_lockres:CR, another node will be waiting
to grab EX lock. This will cause the cluster to hang indefinitely.
How to fix:
1. In dlm_lock_sync(), change the wait behaviour from forever to a
timeout, This could avoid the hanging issue when another node
fails to handle cluster msg. Another result of this change is
that if another node receives an unknown msg (e.g. a new msg_type),
the old code will hang, whereas the new code will timeout and fail.
This could help cluster_md handle new msg_type from different
nodes with different kernel/module versions (e.g. The user only
updates one leg's kernel and monitors the stability of the new
kernel).
2. The old code for __sendmsg() always returns 0 (success) under the
design (must successfully unlock ->message_lockres). This commit
makes this function return an error number when an error occurs.
