Yes. U forgot to mention, that this patchset is git-bisect-not-safe :)
I sent the safe split earlier, but it was harder to make and understand,
so I decided not to waste the time and sent a badly-split set just to get
comments about the approach. The ways a big patch is split wouldn't affect
the comments about the ideas, bugs, etc.

We already have it :)

Possible, but how will
struct pid *find_pid_nr_ns(int nr, struct pid_namespace *ns);
look then? The only way (I see) is to make

hlist_for_each_entry (upid, ...)
if (upid->nr == nr && upid->ns == ns)
return container_of(upid, struct pid, ...)
