An open file description (struct file) in a given process can be associated with two different lock owners. It can have a Posix lock owner which will be different in each process that has a fd on the file. It can have a Flock owner which will be the same in all processes. When searching for a lock stateid to use, we need to consider both of these owners So add a new "flock_owner" to the "nfs_open_context" (of which there is one for each open file description). This flock_owner does not need to be reference-counted as there is a 1-1 relation between 'struct file' and nfs open contexts, and it will never be part of a list of contexts. So there is no need for a 'flock_context' - just the owner is enough. The io_count included in the (Posix) lock_context provides no guarantee that all read-aheads that could use the state have completed, so not supporting it for flock locks in not a serious problem. Synchronization between flock and read-ahead can be added later if needed. When creating an open_context for a non-openning create call, we don't have a 'struct file' to pass in, so the lock context gets initialized with a NULL owner, but this will never be used. The flock_owner is not used at all in this patch, that will come later.
