dlm: do message processing in softirq context

Browse source

Move dlm message processing from an ordered workqueue context to an
ordered softirq context.  Handling dlm messages in softirq will allow
requests to be cleared more quickly and efficiently, and should avoid
longer queues of incomplete requests.  Later patches are expected to
run completion/blocking callbacks directly from this message processing
context, further reducing context switches required to complete a request.
In the longer term, concurrent message processing could be implemented.
