Instead of duplicating the same code in two places use the newly added
pidfd_get_task() helper. This fixes an (unimportant for now) bug where
PIDTYPE_PID is used whereas PIDTYPE_TGID should have been used.

What would have been the effect of the BUG? Is it worth Fixes: or better even separating out the fix?
