Why? We have the only caller, copy_process(), ns == task_active_pid_ns()
always.

Hm... There is no ->parent in "struct pid_namespace", and this
patch doesn't add it.

Q: put_pid() checks "ns != &init_pid_ns" as well, this is just
an optimization, yes? Perhaps we can move this check into
get_pid_ns/put_pid_ns.

We are doing get_pid_ns() only for the "top namespace"... I guess
this can work if pid_namespace does get_pid_ns() on its ->parent.
This patch looks incomplete.

Oleg.
