Subject: [PATCH 03/10] fs: make fcntl.c explicitly non-modular

The Makefile currently controlling compilation of this code is obj-y
meaning that it currently is not being built as a module by anyone.

Lets remove the couple traces of modularity so that when reading the
code there is no doubt it is builtin-only.

Since module_init translates to device_initcall in the non-modular
case, the init ordering gets bumped to one level earlier when we
use the more appropriate fs_initcall here.  However we've made similar
changes before without any fallout and none is expected here either.

We don't replace module.h with init.h since the file already has that.
