Oh, and another problem, or I am totally confused.

T forks and creates the child C1. C1 creates C2. What if C1 exits?
It will try to reparent C2 to the dead/freed ns->child_reaper.

In short. We shouldn't allow alloc_pid() if ns->child_reaper is dying,
I think. nr_hashed == -1 doesn't really work.

Oleg.
