Merge tag 'core-process-v5.4' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/brauner/linux

Pull pidfd/waitid updates from Christian Brauner:
 "This contains two features and various tests.

  First, it adds support for waiting on process through pidfds by adding
  the P_PIDFD type to the waitid() syscall. This completes the basic
  functionality of the pidfd api (cf. [1]). In the meantime we also have
  a new adition to the userspace projects that make use of the pidfd
  api. The qt project was nice enough to send a mail pointing out that
  they have a pr up to switch to the pidfd api (cf. [2]).

  Second, this tag contains an extension to the waitid() syscall to make
  it possible to wait on the current process group in a race free manner
  (even though the actual problem is very unlikely) by specifing 0
  together with the P_PGID type. This extension traces back to a
  discussion on the glibc development mailing list.

  There are also a range of tests for the features above. Additionally,
  the test-suite which detected the pidfd-polling race we fixed in [3]
  is included in this tag"
