gfs2: do_promote glock holder stealing fix

In do_promote(), when the glock had no strong holders, we were
accidentally calling demote_incompat_holders() with new_gh == NULL, so
no weak holders were considered incompatible.  Instead, the new holder
should have been passed in.

For doing that, the HIF_HOLDER flag needs to be set in new_gh to prevent
may_grant() from complaining.  This means that the new holder will now
be recognized as a current holder, so skip over it explicitly in
demote_incompat_holders() to prevent it from being dequeued.

To further clarify things, we can now rename new_gh to current_gh in
demote_incompat_holders(); after all, the HIF_HOLDER flag is already set,
which means the new holder is already a current holder.
