v2 looks nicer.

I would add a few list handling primitives, as I see enough
instances of list_for_each_entry, list_for_each_entry_safe,
list_first_entry, and list_first_entry_or_null on fl_core.flc_list
to make it worth having those.

Also, there doesn't seem to be benefit for API consumers to have to
understand the internal structure of struct file_lock/lease to reach
into fl_core. Having accessor functions for common fields like
fl_type and fl_flags could be cleaner.
