[PATCH] VFS,fs/locks.c,NFSD4: add race_free posix_lock_file_conf() interface
Lockd and the NFSv4 server both exercise a race condition where posix_test_lock() is called either before or after posix_lock_file() to deal with a denied lock request due to a conflicting lock. Remove the race condition for the NFSv4 server by adding a new conflicting lock parameter to __posix_lock_file() , changing the name to __posix_lock_file_conf(). Keep posix_lock_file() interface, add posix_lock_conf() interface, both call __posix_lock_file_conf().
