* [PATCH] gfs2: do not evict glocks with populated address spaces

Metadata glocks may have associated address spaces used as caches. Avoid
reclaiming such glocks under memory pressure while their mappings are
still populated or their state is not unlocked, as this can lead to
invalid page cache state and GLOCK_BUG_ON().
