[DLM] can miss clearing resend flag

A long, complicated sequence of events, beginning with the RESEND flag not
being cleared on an lkb, can result in an unlock never completing.

- lkb on waiters list for remote lookup
- the remote node is both the dir node and the master node, so
  it optimizes the lookup into a request and sends a request
  reply back
- the request reply is saved on the requestqueue to be processed
  after recovery
- recovery runs dlm_recover_waiters_pre() which sets RESEND flag
  so the lookup will be resent after recovery
- end of recovery: process_requestqueue takes saved request reply
  which removes the lkb off the waitesr list, _without_ clearing
  the RESEND flag
- end of recovery: dlm_recover_waiters_post() doesn't do anything
  with the now completed lookup lkb (would usually clear RESEND)
- later, the node unmounts, unlocks this lkb that still has RESEND
  flag set
- the lkb is on the waiters list again, now for unlock, when recovery
  occurs, dlm_recover_waiters_pre() shows the lkb for unlock with RESEND
  set, doesn't do anything since the master still exists
- end of recovery: dlm_recover_waiters_post() takes this lkb off
  the waiters list because it has the RESEND flag set, then reports
  an error because unlocks are never supposed to be handled in
  recover_waiters_post().
- later, the unlock reply is received, doesn't find the lkb on
  the waiters list because recover_waiters_post() has wrongly
  removed it.
- the unlock operation has been lost, and we're left with a
  stray granted lock
- unmount spins waiting for the unlock to complete

The visible evidence of this problem will be a node where gfs umount is
spinning, the dlm waiters list will be empty, and the dlm locks list will
show a granted lock.

The fix is simply to clear the RESEND flag when taking an lkb off the
waiters list.
