Once Bruce is happy with the test results, you can pull it from

git+ssh://master.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arnd/bkl.git flock

I've rewritten all the changelogs to make more sense as a series,
and split out the bits that turn lock_flocks into a spinlock to
come last, so we get a bisectable series.

The contents are left unchanged.

    locks: turn lock_flocks into a spinlock
    
    Nothing depends on lock_flocks using the BKL
    any more, so we can do the switch over to
    a private spinlock.

commit 55d3ff97c5c0b3dce39f705e2b1fe85818891822

    locks: avoid fasync allocation under lock_flocks
    
    This splits fasync_helper into four functions: fasync_alloc,
    fasync_free, fasync_insert_entry and fasync_remove_entry,
    in order to allow the lease handling to call them directly
    instead of going through fasync_helper.
    
    The fasync_helper interface really doesn't make sense outside
    of ->fasync file operations, which use the same calling
    conventions of passing flags in and out as the helper.
    
    After the change, fcntl_setlease can simply allocate the
    new fasync_struct outside of lock_flocks, which is required
    to turn that into a spinlock.

    locks/nfsd: allocate file lock outside of spinlock
    
    As suggested by Christoph Hellwig, this moves allocation
    of new file locks out of generic_setlease into the
    callers, nfs4_open_delegation and fcntl_setlease in order
    to allow GFP_KERNEL allocations when lock_flocks has
    become a spinlock.

    lockd: fix nlmsvc_notify_blocked locking
    
    nlmsvc_notify_blocked walks the nlm_blocked list,
    which requires nlm_blocked_lock.

    lockd: push lock_flocks down
    
    lockd should use lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel()
    to lock against posix locks accessing the i_flock list.
    
    This is a prerequisite to turning lock_flocks into a
    spinlock.
