The first patch in this patchset fixes a very long-standing bug in the handling of races between setlk and close. That one should be appropriate for all stable kernels and should apply to most kernels as-is. The second patch exempts OFD locks from setlk/close race handling since they shouldn't need it anyway. The rest of the patches add some better debugging for these problems and do a little function name cleanup. I'm planning to go ahead and put these into linux-next today and send them to Linus for the 4.5 merge, unless there are any objections...
