ocfs2/dlm: fix misuse of list_move_tail() in dlm_run_purge_list()
PATCH v2 1/1 ocfs2/dlm: fix misuse of list_move_tail() in dlm_run_purge_list()
When a lockres in purge list but is still in use, it should be moved to the tail of purge list. dlm_thread will continue to check next lockres in purge list. However, code list_move_tail(&dlm->purge_list, &lockres->purge) will do *no* movements, so dlm_thread will purge the same lockres in this loop again and again. If it is in use for a long time, other lockres will not be processed.

Oh didn't realize, this must be the fixed version of the patch? It might've been nice to label it V2 or something. Anyway, thanks for this. Please ignore my previous mail.
