Subject: [PATCH 00/12 v6] fs/locks: avoid thundering-herd wake-ups

This series has the fixes for the recently reported performance
regressions merged into the patches which caused them.
It also has a couple of little fixes that have been mentioned on the
list, and that Jeff had merged into his copy.

Thanks,
NeilBrown

      fs/locks: rename some lists and pointers.
      fs/locks: split out __locks_wake_up_blocks().
      NFS: use locks_copy_lock() to copy locks.
      gfs2: properly initial file_lock used for unlock.
      ocfs2: properly initial file_lock used for unlock.
      fs/locks: use properly initialized file_lock when unlocking.
      fs/locks: allow a lock request to block other requests.
      fs/locks: always delete_block after waiting.
      fs/locks: change all *_conflict() functions to return bool.
      fs/locks: create a tree of dependent requests.
      fs/locks: merge posix_unblock_lock() and locks_delete_block()
      fs/locks: locks: remove unnecessary white space.
