[RFC PATCH 01/12] locks: add a new struct file_locking_context pointer to struct inode

[Jeff Layton]

The current scheme of using the i_flock list is really difficult to
manage. Start conversion to a new scheme to eventually replace it.

We start by adding a new i_flctx to struct inode. For now, it lives in
parallel with i_flock list, but will eventually replace it. The idea is
to allocate a structure to sit in that pointer and act as a locus for
all things file locking.

We'll manage it with RCU and the i_lock, so that things like the
break_lease() check can use RCU to check for its presence.
