I add some printk in pid_ns_release_proc,it's not called in above case.
when copy_net_ns failed,this pid_namespace is not used by any task,
so proc_flush_task can't call pid_ns_release_proc to umount this pidns->proc_mnt.
it's the only chance we can unmount this pindns->proc_mnt.

With this patch,everything runs well.

Thanks
Gao
