Ok, I've removed the locks from fs/fcntl.c and added them into
fs/locks.c:

* fcntl_getlease dereferences filp->f_dentry->d_inode->i_flock. Race
with multithreaded app: sys_close()->filp_close()->locks_remove_posix()
+ fcntl_getlease()
* according to Documentation/filesystems/Locking, f_op->lock() is called
with the blk acquired. lock added around that call in
fcntl_{get,set}lk{,64}

I've attached a new patch.
