AFAIK, nfsd gets the paths to export from userspace via
svc_export_parse() => kern_path(buf, 0, &exp.ex_path)
afterwards check_export() validates exp.ex_path and I see that regular
files can be exported.
I suppose that a pidfs file can have a magic link path no?
The question is whether this magic link path could be passed to nfsd
via the exportfs UAPI.

Yes, I agree, but...

This is a bad name IMO, since pidfs clearly does support file handles
and supports the open_by_handle_at() UAPI.
I was going to suggest EXPORT_OP_NO_NFS_EXPORT, but it also
sounds silly, so maybe:
#define EXPORT_OP_LOCAL_FILE_HANDLE (0x80) /* fs only
supports local file handles, no nfs export */
With that you may add:
