[RFC PATCH 2/5] locks: add definitions for F_RDLCKP and F_WRLCKP

From: Jeff Layton
Date: Fri Oct 11 2013 - 08:26:36 EST


No arch seems to use these values for anything, so defining them
globally should be ok. When they are specified, translate them into
their non-P variants, and set the FL_FILP_PRIVATE flag to indicate
that they should get the proper behavior on close.
