[14/42] lnet: call event handlers without res_lock

Commit Message

From: Mr NeilBrown <[e-mail]>

Currently event handlers are called with the lnet_res_lock()
(a spinlock) held.  This is a problem if the handler wants
to take a mutex, allocate memory, or sleep for some other
reason.

The lock is needed because handlers for a given md need to
be serialized.  At the very least, the final event which
reports that the md is "unlinked" needs to be called last,
after any other events have been handled.

Instead of using a spinlock to ensure this ordering, we can
use a flag bit in the md.

- Before considering whether to send an event we wait for the flag bit
  to be cleared.  This ensures serialization.
- Also wait for the flag to be cleared before final freeing of the md.
- If this is not an unlink event and we need to call the handler, we
  set the flag bit before dropping lnet_res_lock().  This
  ensures the not further events will happen, and that the md
  won't be freed - so we can still clear the flag.
- use wait_var_event to wait for the flag it to be cleared,
  and wake_up_var() to signal a wakeup.  After wait_var_event()
  returns, we need to take the spinlock and check again.
