[PATCH] locks: rename file-private locks to file-description locks

[Jeff Layton]

File-private locks have been merged into Linux for v3.15, and *now*
people are commenting that the name and macro definitions for the new
file-private locks suck.

...and I can't even disagree. The names and command macros do suck.

We're going to have to live with these for a long time, so it's
important that we be happy with the names before we're stuck with them.

The consensus on the lists so far is that they should be rechristened as
"file-description locks".

This patch makes the following changes that I think are necessary before
v3.15 ships:

1) rename the command macros to their new names. These end up in the uapi
   headers and so are part of the external-facing API. It turns out that
   glibc doesn't actually use the fcntl.h uapi header, but it's hard to
   be sure that something else won't. Changing it now is safest.

2) make the the /proc/locks output display these as type "FDLOCK"

The rest of the renaming can wait until v3.16, since everything else
isn't visible outside of the kernel.
