[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.6 16/41] gfs2: Grab glock reference sooner in gfs2_add_revoke

[ Upstream commit f4e2f5e1a527ce58fc9f85145b03704779a3123e ]

This patch rearranges gfs2_add_revoke so that the extra glock
reference is added earlier on in the function to avoid races in which
the glock is freed before the new reference is taken.
