in simple.el:

(defun line-number-at-pos (&optional pos)
   "Return (narrowed) buffer line number at position POS.
If POS is nil, use current buffer location.
Counting starts at (point-min), so the value refers
to the contents of the accessible portion of the buffer."
   (let ((opoint (or pos (point))) start)
     (save-excursion
       (goto-char (point-min))
       (setq start (point))
       (goto-char opoint)
       (forward-line 0)
       (1+ (count-lines start (point))))))

why not just

(count-lines (point-min) (or pos (point)))
