A smaller variation of the v1 patchset that I posted earlier this week.
Neil's review inspired me to get rid of the lm_may_setlease operation
and to do the conflict resolution internally inside of nfsd. That means
a smaller VFS-layer change, and an overall reduction in code.

This patchset adds support for directory delegations to nfsd. This
version only supports recallable delegations. There is no CB_NOTIFY
support yet. I have patches for those, but we've decided to add that
support in a later kernel once we get some experience with this part.
Anna is working on the client-side pieces.

It would be great if we could get into linux-next soon so that it can be
merged for v6.19. Christian, could you pick up the vfs/filelock patches,
and Chuck pick up the nfsd patches?
Happy to! Sorry, for the late reply. I was out for a few days.
