[Devel] [PATCH rh7 2/2] fs/lock: show locks taken by processes from another pidns

Currently if we face a lock taken by a process invisible in the current
pidns we skip the lock completely, but this

1) makes the output not that nice
    (root at vz7)/: cat /proc/${PID_A2}/fdinfo/3
    pos:    4
    flags:  02100002
    mnt_id: 257
    lock:   (root at vz7)/:

2) makes it more difficult to debug issues with leaked flocks:
   imagine, you get error on lock, but don't see any locks in /proc/$id/fdinfo/$file

Let's show information about such locks again as previously, but
show zero in the owner pid field.
