Having looked into this in a bit more detail now, it seems that this
particular function (generic_setlease) is one of a number appearing in
fs.h which are replaced by macros in the case that CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING
is not set.

So rather than just do the one function, it seemed to make sense to me
to make them all the same. So this uses inline functions as originally
proposed. If you'd prefer that we don't inline them and instead have a
fs/no-locks.c or something like that with stub functions in it, then I"m
happy to revise the patch accordingly.

This patch passes my compile tests, modulo a small change that I need to
make in GFS2 to suppress a warning (not attached). That seems to be
related to yet another set of macros which appear only with
CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING not set. Maybe I should update those to be inline
functions as well....

Steve.
