fs/locks.c: prepare for BKL removal

This prepares the removal of the big kernel lock from the
file locking code. We still use the BKL as long as fs/lockd
uses it and ceph might sleep, but we can flip the definition
to a private spinlock as soon as that's done.
All users outside of fs/lockd get converted to use
lock_flocks() instead of lock_kernel() where appropriate.

Based on an earlier patch to use a spinlock from Matthew
Wilcox, who has attempted this a few times before, the
earliest patch from over 10 years ago turned it into
a semaphore, which ended up being slower than the BKL
and was subsequently reverted.

Someone should do some serious performance testing when
this becomes a spinlock, since this has caused problems
before. Using a spinlock should be at least as good
as the BKL in theory, but who knows...
