Do these _have_ to be macros?

No, but why not?
I can make them static inline functions, but why are macros that bad?

Do we do this loop anywhere else?  Should we have a for_each_pid() that
makes this a little less messy?

No. Iteration over the hash chain happens here only.

OK, I think this is really confusing.  If find_get_pid() finds vpids,
should we not call it find_get_vpid()?

I'd better make it find_get_pid_ns() with two arguments and made a couple
of macros (or static inlines) for global search and local search.
