Configure out file locking features
This patch adds the CONFIG_FILE_LOCKING option which allows to remove
support for advisory locks. With this patch enabled, the flock()
system call, the F_GETLK, F_SETLK and F_SETLKW operations of fcntl()
and NFS support are disabled. These features are not necessarly needed
on embedded systems. It allows to save ~11 Kb of kernel code and data:
