Changing this to pid_nr_ns, to make this relative to the pid namespace
of proc would be very reasonable.

Making files content relative to current is in general a bug.

Hiding the fact you are contained is not an explicit goal.  But making
those things that are reasonably in a namespace relative to that
namespace is.
