I do have one concern here with setting the flag at this point. It's
possible with NFS that we'll end up setting a lock locally if we have a
delegation (also true for CIFS and probably Ceph -- maybe others too).

Here though, you're setting FL_PID_PRIV so those locks will always show
a l_pid of current->tgid, even when you're querying it from a different
pid namespace.

If we want to go this route, then you'll also need to fix NFS to clear
that flag when it sets the lock locally, and audit other fs' that have a
->lock operation for the same thing.

However, I think it might be cleaner to have the filesystems set that
flag to opt out of the default pid translation.

Thoughts?
