I left it in fs.h for now. Some of the file_operations prototypes need
that typedef, and I figure that anyone who is including filelock.h will
almost certainly need to include fs.h anyway. We could move it into a
separate header too, but it's probably not worth it.
HCH mentioned years ago though that we should just get rid of fl_owner_t
altogether and just use 'void *'. I didn't do it at the time because I
was focused on other changes, but this might be a good time to change
it.

I can spin up a patch to nuke that too. I count only 30 callsites
remaining anyway.

I'm not sure what you mean here. This prototype hasn't changed, and is
only called from procfs.
