Yes this is data being sent to a userspace daemon (Ian pls correct me if
I'm wrong) so the pid_nr is the only thing we can send.

Subject: [PATCH] autofs4: store struct pids in autofs_waitqs
From: Serge Hallyn <serue@us.ibm.com>
Date: 1174412305 -0500

Store struct pids in autofs_waitqs in place of pidnrs to prevent
pid overflow problems.
