This should be moved before patch 2 and can probably go in once 2.6.23
opens aswell.

Except this shouldn't be made non-static in this patch.

And this prototype shouldn't be kept.  If you want to use it somewhere
later in the patch series make it non-static and export it in a separate
patch.  If it's ever intended to be export it should probably get a
better name aswell, e.g. generic_setlease.
