Idle thought: are there any concerns about the occupancy
impact of adding a wait_queue_head to every task_struct,
whether it has a clonefd or not?

I guess we could reduce the size somewhat by just
storing a struct file *clonefd_file in the task, and then have
a separate structure (with the wqh and a task_struct*) referenced
by file->private_data.  Not sure whether the added complication
would be worthwhile, though.

It might be nice to include a show_fdinfo() implementation that shows
(say) the pid that the clonefd refers to.  E.g. something like:

static void clonefd_show_fdinfo(struct seq_file *m, struct file *file)
{
    struct task_struct *p = file->private_data;

    seq_printf(m, "tid:\t%d\n", task_tgid_vnr(p));
}

Maybe also check for (args->clonefd == NULL) in advance, and
return -EINVAL or -EFAULT?
