+ * glock_blocked_by_withdraw - determine if we can still use a glock
+ * @gl: the glock
+ *
+ * We need to allow some glocks to be enqueued, dequeued, promoted, and demoted
+ * when we're withdrawn. For example, to maintain metadata integrity, we should
+ * disallow the use of inode and rgrp glocks when withdrawn. Other glocks, like
+ * iopen or the transaction glocks may be safely used because none of their
+ * metadata goes through the journal. So in general, we should disallow all
+ * glocks that are journaled, and allow all the others. One exception is:
+ * we need to allow our active journal to be promoted and demoted so others
+ * may recover it and we can reacquire it when they're done.
