Actually, sanlock is doomed. It allows us to set the initial offset
(with posing some weird restrictions on it) and it doesn't allow us to
specify length we want to lock (it looks like it locks whole disk
sector). Therefore we can't lock offsets 0 and 1 independently. D'oh!
Maybe we could lock offsets 0 and 1MB but I'm unsure how sanlock behaves
when offset is outside of the file (we can't safely assume that every
file we will try to lock is at least 1MB big, can we? No we can't!
OVMF_VARS is only 128KB long).
https://linux.die.net/man/8/sanlock and scroll down to offsets.
Therefore I rather stick with my dummy implementation and have somebody
else look at this. Somebody who understands how sanlock works.
