The lifetime of `PidNamespace` is bound to `Task` and `struct pid`. The `PidNamespace` of a `Task` doesn't ever change once the `Task` is alive. A `unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)` or `setns(fd_pidns/pidfd, CLONE_NEWPID)` will not have an effect on the calling `Task`'s pid namespace. It will only effect the pid namespace of children created by the calling `Task`. This invariant guarantees that after having acquired a reference to a `Task`'s pid namespace it will remain unchanged. When a task has exited and been reaped `release_task()` will be called. This will set the `PidNamespace` of the task to `NULL`. So retrieving the `PidNamespace` of a task that is dead will return `NULL`. Note, that neither holding the RCU lock nor holding a referencing count to the `Task` will prevent `release_task()` being called. In order to retrieve the `PidNamespace` of a `Task` the `task_active_pid_ns()` function can be used. There are two cases to consider: (1) retrieving the `PidNamespace` of the `current` task (2) retrieving the `PidNamespace` of a non-`current` task
