The following patch converts the NFSv2/v3 locking code to use the same mechanism as NFSv4 for sending asynchronous RPC calls and then waiting for them to complete. This ensures that the UNLOCK and CANCEL RPC calls will complete even if the user interrupts the call, yet satisfies the above request for synchronous behaviour on process exit.
