[11/16] tmpfs: fcntl(fd, F_MEM_LOCKED) to test if memlocked

Commit Message

Though we have not yet found a compelling need to make the locked status
of a tmpfs file visible, and offer no tool to show it, the kernel ought
to be able to support such a tool: add the F_MEM_LOCKED fcntl, returning
-1 on failure (not tmpfs), 0 when not F_MEM_LOCKED, 1 when F_MEM_LOCKED.
