It's a false positive:

smatch thinks the array ns->pidmap[] has ARRAY_SIZE() of 1 and i is 1.

kernel/pid_namespace.c
    95          for (i = 1; i < PIDMAP_ENTRIES; i++)
    96                  atomic_set(&ns->pidmap[i].nr_free, BITS_PER_PAGE);

On my .config PIDMAP_ENTRIES is 0 so that line is never reached.
