locks,lockd: fix race in nlmsvc_testlock
posix_test_lock() returns a pointer to a struct file_lock which is unprotected
and can be removed while in use by the caller. Move the conflicting lock from
the return to a parameter, and copy the conflicting lock.
In most cases the caller ends up putting the copy of the conflicting lock on
the stack. On i386, sizeof(struct file_lock) appears to be about 100 bytes.
We're assuming that's reasonable.
