Subject: [GIT] locks.c updates for 2.6.24

You can pull the following file-locking changes from:

  git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/linux.git locks

Cleanup, minor bugfixes and some documentation patches.  They've been in
-mm for a while.

(By the way, I've also started some very primitive lease and flock
tests, available from:

	git://linux-nfs.org/~bfields/lock-tests.git

and I'm mainly depending on those and connectathon locking tests for
now.)
