I think using PID=-1 and APP=none might be misleading, because
something did cause the wedge if we landed here. You could use
"PID=unknown" and "APP=unknown" or ensure these arrays are
zeroed and fill them only if "info" is available:

-     char *envp[] = { event_string, NULL };
+     char pid_string[15] = {}, comm_string[TASK_COMM_LEN] = {};
+     char *envp[] = { event_string, pid_string, comm_string, NULL };

[...]

+     if (info) {
+             snprintf(pid_string, sizeof(pid_string), "PID=%u", info->pid);
+             snprintf(comm_string, sizeof(comm_string), "APP=%s", info->comm);
+     }

Then, when printing the logs later you could check if they have
a value and only use them if they do (or handle that however
you would see fit :) ).

Best Regards,
Krzysztof
