Pull file locking updates from Jeff Layton:
 "Most of this is just follow-on cleanup work of documentation and
  comments from the mandatory locking removal in v5.15.

  The only real functional change is that LOCK_MAND flock() support is
  also being removed, as it has basically been non-functional since the
  v2.5 days"
