re: [CI] dlm-CI patch (remove the dlmdu.)

Did you see David Chow's message on the OpenGFS list that he had a recent =
discussion with some IBM engineers and they said that the IBM DLM has pretty =
excessive interconnect requirements.

Just a few nodes could saturate a 100 Mbit interconnect and that to do a large =
scale network, myrinet would be required.

Obviously it is nice that IBM's DLM (or OpenDLM) can utilize CI for node =
up/down monitoring, but it makes one wonder if this is the right locking =
solution to be a core piece of SSI/CI.
