There is possibility of a livelock in __ocfs2_cluster_lock(). If a node were
to get an ast for an upconvert request, followed immediately by a bast,
there is a small window where the fs may downconvert the lock before the
process requesting the upconvert is able to take the lock.
This patch adds a new flag to indicate that the upconvert is still in
progress and that the dc thread should not downconvert it right now.
