Impact: cleanup

The command line recorder uses (unsigned) -1 to mark non mapped
entries in the pid to command line maps. The validity check is
completely unintuitive: idx >= SAVED_CMDLINES

There is no need for such casting games. Use a constant to mark
unmapped entries and check for that constant to make the code readable
and understandable.
