I think a slightly nicer way of doing this would be to use a structure
like this:

#define NR_PIDS (PAGE_SIZE-sizeof(struct list_head))
struct pid_list {
	struct list_head list;
	pid_t pids[NR_PIDS];
};

That way, you can always kmalloc(sizeof(pid_list)), it fits nicely in
PAGE_SIZE, and you can chain them together.

Or, you could always just use one of the other flexible structures in
the kernel like a radix_tree.
