here is a fix to a previous ChangeSet from John; 32-bit emulation of flock(fd,
F_GETLK, &lock) currently is broken.

The ChangeSet:
http://linux.bkbits.net:8080/linux-2.5/cset%404152257aJKu1UClRcfvhsK6IjGYSeQ?nav=index.html|ChangeSet@-12w
from John Engel <jhe@us.ibm.com> fixes an off-by-one error and according
to the ChangeSet comment, it also contains a fix to handle l_len < 0 which
is now defined in POSIX 1003.1-2001 from the fcntl man page.

Gordon Jin <gordon.jin@intel.com> reports that the added test causes
compat_sys_fcntl[64] to fail: If fcntl(fd, F_GETLK, &lock) finds no
conflicting lock it sets l_whence to F_UNLCK, leaves all the other fields
unchanged, and returns 0.  The (f.l_start < 0) test wrongly converts this
to an EINVAL result.

The underlying sys_fcntl function which compat_sys_fcntl and
compat_sys_fcntl64 invoke already handles POSIX behavior correctly.  The
additional tests in the compat wrappers are not needed.

Here is a test case; its expected result is:

PASS
