Subject: [PATCH] locks: typedef fl_owner_t to void *
fl_owner_t is a cookie that can store all kinds of different pointers,
so don't pretends it points to a file structure.
For now just change the typedef, but as a follow on this will allow
to get rids of lots of casts and eventually the typedef itself.
