Well we do have a C implementation of this now, it would be better to
have the logic in one place and just call the C function to collect the
number of pids.

If we add tst_get_free_pids.c to the testcases/lib/ directory with:

#define TST_NO_DEFAULT_MAIN
#include <stdio.h>
#include <tst_test.h>

extern struct tst_test *tst_test;

static struct tst_test test = {
};

int main(void)
{
	/* force messages to be printed from new library */
        tst_test = &test;

        printf("%i\n", tst_get_free_pids());

        return 0;
}

We can do FREE_PIDS=$(tst_get_free_pids) here and then just compare the numbers.
