As best I can tell, the logic for these has been broken for a long time (at least before the move to git), such that they never conflict with anything. Also, nothing checks for these flags and prevented opens or read/write behavior on the files. They don't seem to do anything. Given that, we can rip these symbols out of the kernel, and just make flock(2) return 0 when LOCK_MAND is set in order to preserve existing behavior.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
