Hi Jeff,
do you remember the story behind xfstests generic/484? That test has
been failing for me ever since it was added and on every file system
(which is not surprising given that the functionality isn't file system
specific). Are we expected to fix the issue in the lock ode? Or did we
give up on it?

Sorry for not seeing this before. I blame gmail.
I didn't actually add this test. I believe Eryu may have added it in
response to a bug report and an initial patch that I proposed that
turned out not to be the right approach.
I'm fine with removing this test. We may eventually want to fix this,
but it probably will mean reworking how the file table gets inherited
across execve (which is outside my usual wheelhouse).
