                                          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Please note that task_pid_ptr(task, type)) can return NULL if this
task has already exited and called detach_pid().

detach_pid() does __change_pid(task, type, NULL), please note the

	*pid_ptr = new; // NULL in this case

assignment in __change_pid().

IOW. The problem is not that ns can change, the problem is that
task->thread_pid (and other pid links) can be NULL, and in this
case pid_nr_ns() returns zero.


This code should be rewritten from the very beginning, it should
not rely on pid_nr. If nothing else common->pid and/or pid_visiting
can be reused. But currently my only concern is next_thread().

Thanks for review!
