A quick Google search for "getpidcon(0" shows only the Android bug.

getpidcon documentation does not specify that a pid of 0 refers to the
current process, and getcon exists specifically to provide this
functionality, and getpidcon(getpid()) would provide it as well.
Disallow pid values <= 0 that may lead to unintended behavior in
userspace object managers.

I'll try to see if there are any legitimate users of getpidcon with pid == 0.  If anyone on the list knows of one, please speak up.
