From: Steven Whitehouse on 11 Mar 2010 12:40 From: Sachin Prabhu <sprabhu(a)redhat.com> gfs2_lock() will skip locks on file which have mode set to 02666. This is a problem in cases where the mode of the file is changed after a process has obtained a lock on the file. Such a lock will be skipped and will result in a BUG in locks_remove_flock(). gfs2_lock() should skip the check for mandatory locks when unlocking a file.
