So this is a fine change, but there's a couple more:

- Documentation/filesystems/locks.rst still has a section on mandatory
locking that, presumably, can just come out; it has a reference to
the now-removed file.

- There is also a reference (dated April 1996) in the pseudo-changelog
comments at the head of fs/locks.c. I'd take the whole pile out, but
that's me...

Thanks,
