fsck: add support for whole-disk locking (-l option)
This feature allows to call multiple independent fsck instances rather than use only one "fsck -A" process. The lock uses LOCK_EX flock(2). The lock request is ignored if the whole-disk is non-rotating disk. The verbose mode (-V) provides information about disk locking. Note that "fsck -l" does not care if the device is stacked, for example if you want to call "fsck -l /dev/md0" and "fsck -l /dev/md1" then the underlying devices will not be locked. The traditional "fsck -A" does not run in parallel for stacked devices. Requested-by: Lennart Poettering <lennart@poettering.net> Signed-off-by: Karel Zak <kzak@redhat.com>
