Split the lock loss cases to a separate case and _not_run? :)

An idea: make locking=on/off/auto, and auto is on iff OFD is usable, otherwise
off. When user specifies locking=on but OFD is unusable, we print a warning.

Only in this on test case the warning will be printed on RHEL, and it's easy to
filter it out.
