Benjamin Coddington 184cefbe62 NLM: Defend against file_lock changes after vfs_test_lock()
Instead of trusting that struct file_lock returns completely unchanged
after vfs_test_lock() when there's no conflicting lock, stash away our
nlm_lockowner reference so we can properly release it for all cases.

This defends against another file_lock implementation overwriting fl_owner
when the return type is F_UNLCK.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
