Removing the locks from the coordinator

---

• removeLock.c

    This process is invoked whenever some of the locks from the coordinator have to be taken back. This may be done to balanc the load of the coordinator. Since a coordinator receives RIBs in the proportion  of the number of locks that it owns, removing some of the free locks from the coordinator may reduce the load on that machine.
    Following are the steps that comprise the locks-remove procedure and they are present in the file removeLock.c:

• Get the number of locks,numberOfLocks, to remove from the coordinator.
• Create a client handle cl,on the local coordinator.
• Call the RPC service remove_locks_svc(int numberOfLocks) using the client handle cl,.
