Ocfs2 devel - Jan 2016 - [PATCH 1/6] ocfs2: o2hb: add negotiate timer

When storage down, all nodes will fence self due to write timeout.
The negotiate timer is designed to avoid this, with it node will
wait until storage up again.

Negotiate timer working in the following way:

1. The timer expires before write timeout timer, its timeout is half
of write timeout now. It is re-queued along with write timeout timer.
If expires, it will send NEGO_TIMEOUT message to master node(node with
lowest node number). This message does nothing but marks a bit in a
bitmap recording which nodes are negotiating timeout on master node.

2. If storage down, nodes will send this message to master node, then
when master node finds its bitmap including all online nodes, it sends
NEGO_APPROVL message to all nodes one by one, this message will re-queue
write timeout timer and negotiate timer.
For any node doesn't receive this message or meets some issue when
handling this message, it will be fenced.
If storage up at any time, o2hb_thread will run and re-queue all the
timer, nothing will be affected by these two steps.

It's better to just do

	struct o2hb_region *reg;

	reg = container_of(work, struct o2hb_region, hr_nego_timeout_work.work);

and avoid the weird 80-column tricks.

the bitmap.h interfaces might be nicer here.  Perhaps.  A little bit.

One second is long enough to unmount the fs (and to run `rmmod
ocfs2'!).  Is there anything preventing the work from triggering in
these situations?

Should the access to hr_nego_node_bitmap be protected, for example,
under o2hb_live_lock?
