GFS2: Fix glock ref counting bug
Depending on the ordering of events as we go around the glock shrinker loop, it is possible to drop the ref count of a glock incorrectly. It doesn't happen very often. This patch corrects the got_ref variable, fixing the problem. Signed-off-by: Steven Whitehouse <swhiteho@redhat.com>
