3ae1acf93a [DLM] add lock timeouts and warnings [2/6]
New features: lock timeouts and time warnings.  If the DLM_LKF_TIMEOUT
flag is set, then the request/conversion will be canceled after waiting
the specified number of centiseconds (specified per lock).  This feature
is only available for locks requested through libdlm (can be enabled for
kernel dlm users if there's a use for it.)

If the new DLM_LSFL_TIMEWARN flag is set when creating the lockspace, then
a warning message will be sent to userspace (using genetlink) after a
request/conversion has been waiting for a given number of centiseconds
(configurable per node).  The time warnings will be used in the future
to do deadlock detection in userspace.

6ed7257b46 [DLM] Consolidate transport protocols
This patch consolidates the TCP & SCTP protocols for the DLM into a single file
and makes it switchable at run-time (well, at least before the DLM actually
starts up!)

For RHEL5 this patch requires Neil Horman's patch that expands the in-kernel
socket API but that has already been twice ACKed so it should be OK.

The patch adds a new lowcomms.c file that replaces the existing lowcomms-sctp.c
& lowcomms-tcp.c files.

fdda387f73 [DLM] Add support for tcp communications
The following patch adds a TCP based communications layer
to the DLM which is compile time selectable. The existing SCTP
layer gives the advantage of allowing multihoming, whereas
the TCP layer has been heavily tested in previous versions of
the DLM and is known to be robust and therefore can be used as
a baseline for performance testing.

597d0cae0f [DLM] dlm: user locks
This changes the way the dlm handles user locks.  The core dlm is now
aware of user locks so they can be dealt with more efficiently.  There is
no more dlm_device module which previously managed its own duplicate copy
of every user lock.

e7fd41792f [DLM] The core of the DLM for GFS2/CLVM
This is the core of the distributed lock manager which is required
to use GFS2 as a cluster filesystem. It is also used by CLVM and
can be used as a standalone lock manager independantly of either
of these two projects.

It implements VAX-style locking modes.
