I like where this is going. Just a few last comments from me :)

Everywhere you use idr.idr_next or idr->idr_next directly,
you could use idr_get_cursor(idr) instead, exposing less
of the IDR internals to the rest of the code.

I believe we should be fine with just the idr_for_each_entry_continue()
surrounding the loop, and not need the while (pid) around that.

That should still iterate over all the pids in the namespace, and
simplify the code even more.

You have done a great job understanding some complicated code, and
simplifying it during your Outreachy internship.
