NFSv4: add flock_owner to open context
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.
