the test in patch 3 commit message has this though:
"- progenyof(0) == 0"
so the intention for progenyof(0) is to always return 0 or 1?
A random ps output from my vm:
[root@...h-fb-vm1 bpf]# ps -eaf | head -3
UID PID PPID C STIME TTY TIME CMD
root 1 0 0 11:45 ? 00:00:12 /sbin/init
root 2 0 0 11:45 ? 00:00:00 [kthreadd]
I was asking because,
after reading the loop, it seems all tasks tracing back to init_task.
so my intuitive thinking is progenyof(init_task.pid) should always
return 1. If it is otherwise, some comments and doc would be useful
to explain why treating init_task.pid differently.
