[PATCH] fs/locks: filter OFD locks from /proc/locks for foreign pid namespaces

[Tao Cui]

From: Tao Cui <cuitao@kylinos.cn>

Since Linux 4.9, /proc/locks only shows locks whose owning process is
visible in the reader's pid namespace.  The check cannot see the
owner of an OFD lock, though: locks_translate_pid() always returns
-1 for FL_OFDLCK, so an OFD lock held outside of that namespace
bypasses the filter and is shown with its device/inode numbers and
byte range, e.g.

    4: OFDLCK ADVISORY  WRITE -1 fd:00:70536961 0 EOF

This was observed on a Kubernetes node: a pod reading /proc/locks
listed the OFD write lock of an unrelated host process, while the
POSIX locks of the very same process were correctly hidden.  The
device/inode pair identifies which host file is locked, the byte
range discloses where it is actively written, and the
appearance/disappearance of entries reflects host task activity,
contrary to the documented per-pidns visibility of /proc/locks
(proc_locks(5)).

OFD locks record the owner tgid in flc_pid, so use it for the
visibility decision in locks_show().  The pid column is still
reported as -1 for OFD locks; only the filter decision changes.

Verified with an OFD and a POSIX write lock held in the initial pid
namespace while a process in a fresh pid namespace reads /proc/locks:
the OFD entry is visible without this patch and hidden with it, the
POSIX entry is hidden in both cases.
