> The dead lock happens between the quorum peer thread which running the 
> follower that doing sync with leader work, and the listener of the qcm of the 
> same quorum peer that doing the receiving connection work. Basically to 
> finish sync with leader, the follower needs to synchronize on both QV_LOCK 
> and the qmc object it owns; while in the receiver thread to finish setup an 
> incoming connection the thread needs to synchronize on both the qcm object 
> the quorum peer owns, and the same QV_LOCK. It's easy to see the problem here 
> is the order of acquiring two locks are different, thus depends on timing / 
> actual execution order, two threads might end up acquiring one lock while 
> holding another.
