Usage of vfs_test_lock() is somewhat confused. Documentation suggests it is given a "lock" but this is not the case. It is given a struct file_lock which contains some details of the sort of lock it should be looking for. In particular passing a "file_lock" containing fl_lmops or fl_ops is meaningless and possibly confusing. This is particularly problematic in lockd. nlmsvc_testlock() receives an initialised "file_lock" from xdr-decode, including manager ops and an owner. It then mistakenly passes this to vfs_test_lock() which might replace the owner and the ops. This can lead to confusion when freeing the lock. The primary role of the 'struct file_lock' passed to vfs_test_lock() is to report a conflicting lock that was found, so it makes more sense for nlmsvc_testlock() to pass "conflock", which it uses for returning the conflicting lock. With this change, freeing of the lock is not confused and code in __nlm4svc_proc_test() and __nlmsvc_proc_test() can be simplified. Documentation for vfs_test_lock() is improved to reflect its real purpose, and a WARN_ON_ONCE() is added to avoid a similar problem in the future.
