Ah so this is where the lock appears. Definitely not git-bisect safe.

rcu should never be needed...
We should be able to get away with a definition that is immutable for the
lifetime of a struct pid.

We should allocate one pid number for each parent pid namespace,
not just one. You don't even seem to be keeping track of the parent
pid namespaces. We can probably get there by walking the parent
processes but it would be easier if we had a pointer in the
pid_namespace...
