nfsd: fix leaked file lock with nfs exported overlayfs
nfsd and lockd call vfs_lock_file() to lock/unlock the inode returned by locks_inode(file). Many places in nfsd/lockd code use the inode returned by file_inode(file) for lock manipulation. With Overlayfs, file_inode() (the underlying inode) is not the same object as locks_inode() (the overlay inode). This can result in "Leaked POSIX lock" messages and eventually to a kernel crash as reported by Eddie Horng: https://marc.info/?l=linux-unionfs&m=153086643202072&w=2 Fix all the call sites in nfsd/lockd that should use locks_inode(). This is a correctness bug that manifested when overlayfs gained NFS export support in v4.16.
