Hi Shyam/Raghavendra/Jiffin,

#18429 [1] addresses a missing functionality in gfapi (since almost Day1) which is to be able to set lk_owner. This fix is now needed for integration of recent/upcoming upstream NFS-Ganesha releases with Gluster without which locking functionality over NFS shall be broken.

Since 3.13 shall be STM release, to be able to continue supporting existing stable gluster releases + NFS-Ganesha, I request you to approve backport of that fix to 3.10 and 3.12 releases. The fix is not intrusive and doesn't affect any other access protocol.

Once it gets approved, as suggested by Niels, I shall first change the symbol version of that new routine to 3.10 in master branch and then backport the changes to stable releases.

Thanks,
Soumya
