Whoops, right, missed that; so, I'm applying the below, sending the
fixup in now, and queuing up the cleanup for 2.6.30 (with the blame
assigned back to you, hah--object or have me add your signed-off-by).

    lockd: clean up blocking lock cases of nlsmvc_lock()
    
    No change in behavior, just rearranging the switch so that we break out
    of the switch if and only if we're in the wait case.

    lockd: fix regression in lockd's handling of blocked locks
    
    If a client requests a blocking lock, is denied, then requests it again,
    then here in nlmsvc_lock() we will call vfs_lock_file() without FL_SLEEP
    set, because we've already queued a block and don't need the locks code
    to do it again.
    
    But that means vfs_lock_file() will return -EAGAIN instead of
    FILE_LOCK_DENIED.  So we still need to translate that -EAGAIN return
    into a nlm_lck_blocked error in this case, and put ourselves back on
    lockd's block list.
    
    The bug was introduced by bde74e4bc64415b1 "locks: add special return
    value for asynchronous locks".
    
    Thanks to From: Frank van Maarseveen for the report; his original test
    case was essentially
    
    	for i in `seq 30`; do flock /nfsmount/foo sleep 10 & done
