I do not really mind, but perhaps

	pid_t pid = 0;

	rcu_read_lock();
	if (pid_alive(task))
		pid = task_pid_nr_ns(rcu_dereference(tsk->real_parent);
	rcu_read_unlock();

	return pid;

looks a bit cleaner.

It could simply do

	return task_ppid_nr_ns(tsk, init_pid_ns);

but again, I won't argue.

Oleg.
