Lars Ellenberg 0e49d7b014 drbd: fix potential distributed deadlock during verify or resync 
If max-buffers and socket buffer sizes are "too small" for the chosen
resync rate, this could lead potentially lead to a distributed deadlock,
which may or may not resolve itself via the "ko-count" and request
timeout mechanism, or could be resolved by forced disconnect.

One option to deal with this is proper configuration:
use larger max-buffer and socket buffers settings,
or reduce the resync rate.

But even with bad configuration we should not deadlock,
but "gracefully" recover.

The issue is avoided by using only up to max-buffers/2 for resync
requests, and by using max-buffers not as a hard limit for data buffer
allocations, but as a throttle threshold only.
