[PATCH v3 1/2] fs/lock: Don't allocate file_lock in flock_make_lock().

[Kuniyuki Iwashima <kuniyu@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Two functions, flock syscall and locks_remove_flock(), call
flock_make_lock().  It allocates struct file_lock from slab
cache if its argument fl is NULL.

When we call flock syscall, we pass NULL to allocate memory
for struct file_lock.  However, we always free it at the end
by locks_free_lock().  We need not allocate it and instead
should use a local variable as locks_remove_flock() does.

Also, the validation for flock_translate_cmd() is not necessary
for locks_remove_flock().  So we move the part to flock syscall
and make flock_make_lock() return nothing.
