You do not need find_get_pid() before rcu_lock and put_pid() at the end.
You can just do find_vpid() under rcu_read_lock().
Ah, sorry. Somehow I forgot you need to call pidfd_create(pid), you can't
do this under rcu_read_lock().
So I was wrong, you can't avoid get/put_pid.
Yeah, I haven't made any changes yet.
