During a withdraw, we don't want to write out any more data than we have
to, so in do_xmote(), skip the ->go_sync() glock operation. We still
want to keep calling ->go_inval() to discard any cached data or
metadata, whether clean or dirty.
We do still allow glocks to transition into state LM_ST_UNLOCKED. This
has the desired side effect of calling ->go_inval() and invalidating the
glock caches.
Function gfs2_withdraw_glocks() is already used for dequeuing any
left-over waiters. We still want that to happen, but additionally, we
want all glocks to be unlocked.
Finally, we change function do_promote() to refuse any further
promotions.
This commit cleans up the leftovers of commit 86934198ee ("gfs2: Clear
flags when withdraw prevents xmote").

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 reStructuredText 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.
