Subject: [PATCH 5/5] Move alloc_pid call to copy_process

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxx>

Move alloc_pid() into copy_process(). This will keep all pid and pid
namespace code together and simplify error handling when we support
multiple pid namespaces.

I would add smth like this to the comment:

When a task creates a new pid namespace, its init (i.e. this task's
child) will have pids with extra info inside - the new numerical id,
that represent this new task in this new namespace. Thus, we have to allocate this new pid only after the namespace creation to find out which namespace this pid will live in.

Hope, I expressed my idea cleanly.
