So how about just a patch like this? It doesn't do anything
*internally* to the inodes, but it fixes up what we expose to user
level to make it look like lsof expects.
Note that the historical dname for those pidfs files was
"anon_inode:[pidfd]", and that patch still kept the inode number in
there, so now it's "anon_inode:[pidfd-XYZ]", but I think lsof is still
happy with that.
Now the last column of lsof still differs from 6.8:
-[pidfd:1234]
+[pidfd-4321]
And lsof tests still fail, as "lsof -F pfn" is checked against:
if ! fgrep -q "p${pid} f${fd} n[pidfd:$pid]" <<<"$line"; then
Where $line is:
p1015 f3 n[pidfd-1315]
Wait, even if I change that minus to a colon, the inner pid (1315)
differs from the outer (1015), but it should not (according to the test).
