[PATCH] fs/locks.c: Fix sys_flock() race

sys_flock() currently has a race which can result in a double free in the
multi-thread case.

Thread 1			Thread 2

sys_flock(file, LOCK_EX)
				sys_flock(file, LOCK_UN)

If Thread 2 removes the lock from inode->i_lock before Thread 1 tests for
list_empty(&lock->fl_link) at the end of sys_flock, then both threads will
end up calling locks_free_lock for the same lock.

Fix is to make flock_lock_file() do the same as posix_lock_file(), namely
to make a copy of the request, so that the caller can always free the lock.

This also has the side-effect of fixing up a reference problem in the
lockd handling of flock.
