The reason is that it is also possible to invoke the tool with --cgroup instead
of --pid. In this case, the tool will iterate over all the pids in the cgroup so
(when --summary is not specified) having the pid associated with each vma is useful.

I could change it to conditionally output the pid only when --cgroup is specified?

Hmm. I've seen tutorials where people have Python running under Android, but I
agree its not zero effort. Perhaps it would be better in C. Unfortuantely, I
can't commit to doing a port at this point.
