Currently when /proc/locks is read it will show all the file locks which are currently created on the machine. On containers, hosted on busy servers this means that doing lsof can be very slow. I observed up to 5 seconds stalls reading 50k locks, while the container itself had only a small number of relevant entries. Fix it by filtering the locks listed by the pidns of the current process and the process which created the lock.
