David Howells 5749ce92c4 afs: Fix file locking
Fix AFS file locking to use the correct vnode pointer and remove a member
of the afs_operation struct that is never set, but it is read and followed,
causing an oops.

This can be triggered by:

	flock -s /afs/example.com/foo sleep 1

when it calls the kernel to get a file lock.

Fixes: e49c7b2f6d ("afs: Build an abstraction around an "operation" concept")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
