I'd think you could assign everything to the flock64 type and do the
common work there or something.

But I'm confused about what the current code is actually trying to do:
if I'm chasing down the definitions right, these quantities are all
signed, and when start is defined as an off_t it can overflow in the
SEEK_CUR and SEEK_END cases. And

if (fl->fl_end < fl->fl_start)
return -EOVERFLOW

is counting on overlow wrapping around, which I thought wasn't
guaranteed in the case of signed arithmetic?
