I applied this to the asm-generic tree, but now I'm having second thoughts, as
this only changes the tools/include/ version but not the version we ship to user
space. Normally these are meant to be kept in sync.

It appears that commit 306f7cc1e906 ("uapi: always define
F_GETLK64/F_SETLK64/F_SETLKW64 in fcntl.h") already caused
them to diverge, presumably the uapi version here is correct and we
forgot to adapt the tools version at some point. There are also some
non-functional differences from older patches.

I think the correct fix to address the problem in both versions and
get them back into sync would be something like the patch below.
I have done zero testing on it though.

Christoph and Florian, any other suggestions?
