lockd: introduce safe async lock op

This patch reverts mostly commit 40595cdc93ed ("nfs: block notification
on fs with its own ->lock") and introduces an EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK
export flag to signal that the "own ->lock" implementation supports
async lock requests. The only main user is DLM that is used by GFS2 and
OCFS2 filesystem. Those implement their own lock() implementation and
return FILE_LOCK_DEFERRED as return value. Since commit 40595cdc93ed
("nfs: block notification on fs with its own ->lock") the DLM
implementation were never updated. This patch should prepare for DLM
to set the EXPORT_OP_ASYNC_LOCK export flag and update the DLM
plock implementation regarding to it.
