Mauro Carvalho Chehab f7c9ee0c72 docs: fs: locks.rst: update comment about mandatory file locking 
The mandatory file locking got removed due to its problems, but
the fs locks documentation still points to it.

Update the text there, informing that it was removed on Kernel
5.14.

Fixes: f7e33bdbd6 ("fs: remove mandatory file locking support")

README 

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.
