Can we add "pid" argument to be able to search next fd in other task?
Together with sys_kcmp() this will be very useful for checkpoint/restore.

That would raise all sorts of security questions unless protected, plus
its got races. If you want to do that and you have the rights you can do

Don't worry, I just asked. =) Seems like crtools dumps fd in the target-task context,
so the current version is suitable.
