gfs2: Stop using glock holder auto-demotion for now
We're having unresolved issues with the glock holder auto-demotion mechanism introduced in commit dc732906. This mechanism was assumed to be essential for avoiding frequent short reads and writes until commit 296abc0d ("gfs2: No short reads or writes upon glock contention"). Since then, when the inode glock is lost, it is simply re-acquired and the operation is resumed. This means that apart from the performance penalty, we might as well drop the inode glock before faulting in pages, and re-acquire it afterwards.
