ocfs2: avoid access invalid address when read o2dlm debug messages
The following case will lead to a lockres is freed but is still in use.
cat /sys/kernel/debug/o2dlm/locking_state dlm_thread
lockres_seq_start
-> lock dlm->track_lock
-> get resA
resA->refs decrease to 0,
call dlm_lockres_release,
and wait for "cat" unlock.
Although resA->refs is already set to 0,
increase resA->refs, and then unlock
lock dlm->track_lock
-> list_del_init()
-> unlock
-> free resA
In such a race case, invalid address access may occurs. So we should
delete list res->tracking before resA->refs decrease to 0.
