hari gowtham d9b5fef033 Tier: Avoiding stale entries from causing demotion to stop
When the parent GFID is a stale entry, the lookup on this parent
fails and this in turn fails the demotion process.

This patch will make the stale entry error to be skipped.

Situation for pargfid to be stale:
Consider a folder from a tar file. Once the tar file is untared
the files in the tar-file will start to demote.
when the demotion is under progress, if we tend to delete
the actual folder, then the files under it which are
undergoing demotion will do a lookup on the parent which was
deleted and become stale entry. This stale entry fails the
Lookup and this will fail the demotion of the other files(not from
tar) that are supposed to be demoted.
