That should be pidfd.h and the resulting new file be placed under the
pidfd entry in maintainers:
+F:     include/uapi/linux/pidfd.h

Please, make them cloexec by default unless there's a very good reason
not to.

I think you want to either want to pad this

+struct pidfd_getfd_args {
+	__u32 size;		/* sizeof(pidfd_getfd_args) */
+	__u32 fd;       /* the tracee's file descriptor to get */
+	__u32 flags;
	__u32 reserved;
+};

or use __aligned_u64 everywhere which I'd personally prefer instead of
this manual padding everywhere.

Nit: It's more common - especially in this file - to do

if (args.flags & ~PIDFD_GETFD_CLOEXEC)
	return -EINVAL;

\n

Please don't pre-set errors unless they are used by multiple exit paths.
if (!ptrace_may_access(task, PTRACE_MODE_READ_REALCREDS)) {
	ret = -EPERM;
	goto out;
}

Same.
