Subject[PATCH] fs/locks.c: prepare for BKL removal
Date
This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the
file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd
uses it and ceph might sleep, but we can flip the definition
to a private spinlock as soon as that's done.
All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use
lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate.

Based on an earlier patch to use a spinlock from Matthew
Wilcox, who has attempted this a few times before. An even
earlier attempt to use a semaphore instead of the BKL
apparently was made by Andrew Morton about ten years ago,
but reverted for performance reasons.

Someone should do some serious performance testing when
this becomes a spinlock, since this has caused problems
before. Using a spinlock should be at least as good
as the BKL in theory, but who knows...

If nobody has any objections to this preparation patch,
I'd like to add it to my bkl/vfs tree and into -next.
