It would have clearer if you had included the call chain where
destroy_pid_namespaces is called with siglock held.
Do you see any good reason not to just change put_ucounts to
use spin_lock_irqsave? Otherwise this looks like a class of bug that
will creep in again. As having the last user of ucounts exit and call
put_ucount in the right conditions looks like something that will
be hard to trigger in with lockdep.
