* struct file_lock represents a generic "file lock". It's used to represent
* POSIX byte range locks, BSD (flock) locks, and leases. It's important to
* note that the same struct is used to represent both a request for a lock and
* the lock itself, but the same object is never used for both.
*
* FIXME: should we create a separate "struct lock_request" to help distinguish
* these two uses?
*
* The i_flock list is ordered by:
*
* 1) lock type -- FL_LEASEs first, then FL_FLOCK, and finally FL_POSIX
* 2) lock owner
* 3) lock range start
* 4) lock range end
*
* Obviously, the last two criteria only matter for POSIX locks.
