This is returning a pid in the init name space, obtained here:

+		res->pid = task_pid_nr(current);

And since the netlink user is not running in the init name space this
will return the wrong pid #, and worse potentially pids the current
name space should not see.

This API also needs to filter the results and only return pids
visible, and translate the pids as well..

I also suspsect this needs to be a netlink array of pids for future,
as we have hope someday to have RDMA uobjects shared between multiple
processes?

Feels odd to return the content of /proc/XX/comm in netlink?
