I doubt that the patch is correct. If there is an issue in kernel, the
patch only hides it.

Note that lf_setlock() first calls lf_getblock() to verify that there
is no contending lock on the range, and if there is a conflicting lock,
the very first statement inside the if() checks for F_WAIT.

Either you get a real deadlock, or there is a bug elsewere.
