nit: we're not getting a pid here but a task_struct pointer. Maybe this
should be called umh_get_init_task?

I'm not terribly familiar with the task_struct lifetime rules...

I assume that you can be assured that tsk won't go away while you hold
the rcu_read_lock, but is doing a get_task_struct while holding it
sufficient to pin it after you drop the lock?

IOW, could the refcount on the task_struct do a 0->1 transition here and
end up being freed anyway after you've grabbed a reference?
