Thats true, but for fairly low values of n in general. Also the dlm
locking will only be stopped for a lockspace in the case that we are in
recovery, so that dlm_lock_stopped() is normally false so that this is
basically iterating down the list, removing each item in turn.

I suppose it might be a bit nicer if we could keep messages from stopped
lock spaces out of the ast queue until the lock space is restarted, but
it probably doesn't make that much difference,

Steve.
