I think this could be caused by a problem I've described in: http://www.mail-archive.com/ocfs2-de...@oss.oracle.com/msg02886.html
The question is what is the right fix for this race. I describe one possibility in http://www.mail-archive.com/ocfs2-de...@oss.oracle.com/msg02938.html but I got no response so far and honestly it is a bit hacky solution. I can write the fix if people here agree that that's the way to go.
