But at this time, it has already called dlm_purge_lockres(). The reasons are as follows:
1) lockres is created in dlm_init_lockres(), it call kref_init(), count is 1;
2) Only when lockres is unused, it will call dlm_lockres_put() twice by dlm_run_purge_list().
So dlm_purge_lockres() has been called if the count goes to zero.

Without this scene. dlm_purge_lockres() is called before dlm_lockres_release().
