Bah. I think that commit is entirely broken, due to having the
arguments to the "copy_flock_fields()" in the wrong order.

The copy_flock_fields() macro has the arguments in order <from, to>,
but all the users seem to do it the other way around.

I think it would have been more obvious if the put_compat_flock*()
source argument had been "const".

I'm not seeing a patch, so I did my own. But it's _entirely_ untested.
Does the attached fix things for you?
