Fine with me.

Another alternative would be to keep a series of all these patches
together, like

1. fs/locks.c: prepare for BKL removal
2. fs/lockd: use lock/flocks
3. fs/locks.c: lock_flocks using spinlock (trivial)

Feel free to take the patch below into a tree of yours when
adding patches 2 and 3 on top, or send me that patch once
it's done and I'll add both into my tree.

Linus, Christoph: Does the patch below look ok? I've removed
the CONFIG_BKL stuff in it now and changed over everything
besides lockd to use lock_flocks(). I'd like to put this into
the -next queue (after some basic testing).

Subject: [PATCH] fs/locks.c: prepare for BKL removal

This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the
file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd
uses it, but flip the definition to a private spinlock
as soon as that's done.

All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use
lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate.

Based on an earlier patch from Matthew Wilcox.
