DLM: fix conversion deadlock when DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag is set

When the DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag was set, even if conversion deadlock
was detected, the caller of can_be_granted() was unknown.
We change the behavior of can_be_granted() and change it to detect
conversion deadlock regardless of whether the DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag
is set or not. And depending on whether the DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag
is set or not, we change the behavior at the caller of can_be_granted().

This fix has no effect except when using DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag.
Currently, ocfs2 uses the DLM_LKF_NODLCKWT flag and does not expect a
cancel operation from conversion deadlock when calling dlm_lock().
ocfs2 is implemented to perform a cancel operation by requesting
BASTs (callback).
