bug#34355: Emacs confusion with file locking after hostname change

Hi!

In Emacs 25.3.1 I had the problem that Emacs refuses to save a modified buffer 
after plugging in the network cable: The hostname changed through DHCP, and now 
Emacs says the file is locked by another user with some PID. However that PID 
is the only Emacs PID on the system, and it's Emacs' own PID!
I suspect that Emacs gets the hostname once during startup, and never checks it 
again. (I could not find a match using "C-h a hostname")

Regards,
Ulrich Windl
