ok. I base my work on [0], is this correct?

sure, a vfs_file_lock() can return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED as well, even
without having this export flag set. How non upstream users use it, I
have no idea as it has some races.

This flag implies it makes only sense if the filesystem has its own
lock() implementation, if it doesn't have that I guess the core fs
functions for local file locking are being used.
I guess it can be removed, but it should not be used when there is no
own ->lock() implementation, at least not now until somebody might
update the fs core functionality for local file locking to handle
blocking lock requests asynchronously.
