dlm: limit dir lookup loop
In a rare case we may need to repeat a local resource directory lookup due to a race with removing the rsb and removing the resdir record. We'll never need to do more than a single additional lookup, though, so the infinite loop around the lookup can be removed. In addition to being unnecessary, the infinite loop is dangerous since some other unknown condition may appear causing the loop to never break. Signed-off-by: David Teigland <teigland@redhat.com>
