[PATCH 05/29] vfs: add a vfs helper for io_uring file pos lock

From: Hao Xu
Date: Fri Aug 25 2023 - 09:58:07 EST


From: Hao Xu <howeyxu@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add a vfs helper file_pos_lock_nowait() for io_uring usage. The function
have conditional nowait logic, i.e. if nowait is needed, return -EAGAIN
when trylock fails.
