Bob Peterson 0befb8511e gfs2: do_promote glock holder stealing fix
In do_promote(), when the glock had no strong holders, we were
accidentally calling demote_incompat_holders() with new_gh == NULL, so
no weak holders were considered incompatible.  Instead, the new holder
should have been passed in.

For doing that, the HIF_HOLDER flag needs to be set in new_gh to prevent
may_grant() from complaining.  This means that the new holder will now
be recognized as a current holder, so skip over it explicitly in
demote_incompat_holders() to prevent it from being dequeued.

To further clarify things, we can now rename new_gh to current_gh in
demote_incompat_holders(); after all, the HIF_HOLDER flag is already set,
which means the new holder is already a current holder.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
