In case of an final DLM message we can't should not send an ack out after the final message. This patch moves the ack message before the messages will be transmitted. If it's the final message and the receiving node turns into DLM_CLOSED state another ack messages will being received and turning the receiving node into DLM_ESTABLISHED again.
