[#LU-13794] changing comp-flags using lfs setstripe could get stuck when ost is down

we are testing FLR setup and found out lfs setstripe could get stuck.

After creating the FLR layout and lfs mirror resync:

[root@bss022 test_file_replica]# lfs getstripe -v test-file1 
test-file1

      lmm_objects:
      - 0: { l_ost_idx: 13, l_fid: [0x2800000408:0x1802:0x0] }

after putting ost9 offline we are still able to read the file.

but in order to be able to write the file we need to set the preferred flag on the other component:

lfs setstripe --comp-set -I 131074 --comp-flags=prefer test-file1

however it will get stuck because lfs is trying to flush the client cache to ost9 which is offline.
