Oh duh...

Please ignore my comment on patch #7 to add a patch for the NFS client.
This one does that. That said, there may be a potential problem here
that you need to consider.

In the case of a local filesystem you'll want to set deny locks using
deny_lock_file(). For a network filesystem like CIFS or NFS though,
the server will handle that atomically during the open. You need to
ensure that you don't go trying to set LOCK_MAND locks on the file once
that's done.

Perhaps you can use a fstype flag to indicate that the filesystem
handles this during the open and doesn't need to try and set a flock
lock?
