Here we're in the context of a F_GETLK operation. We've requested the
lock information from the fuse process, and ffl->pid is the pid number
in that process's pid namespace so it needs to be translated into
current's namespace. First we have to look up the struct pid, then
pid_vnr is just a wrapper for pid_nr_ns in the current pid namespace:

  pid_t pid_vnr(struct pid *pid)
  {
          return pid_nr_ns(pid, task_active_pid_ns(current));
  }

Oh, but the comment is wrong, so maybe that's what confused you.
s/connection/caller/ there and it should make more sense.
