locks: introduce locks_lock_inode_wait()

Browse Source 
Users of the locks API commonly call either posix_lock_file_wait() or
flock_lock_file_wait() depending upon the lock type.  Add a new function
locks_lock_inode_wait() which will check and call the correct function for
the type of lock passed in.
