LTP runltp -f syscalls does cover some of that; BTW, looks like fcntl11,
fcntl11_64, fcntl21 and fcntl21_64 in there got broken by something already
merged. Hadn't don bisect yet, but seeing
* NAME
* fcntl11.c
*
* DESCRIPTION
* Testcase to check locking of regions of a file
*
* ALGORITHM
* Test changing lock sections around a write lock
and
* NAME
* fcntl21.c
*
* DESCRIPTION
* Check locking of regions of a file
*
* ALGORITHM
* Test changing lock sections around a read lock

I'd say that file locking merge is most likely suspect...
