From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
alloc_pidmap() can fail either because all pid numbers are in use or
because memory allocation failed. With support for setting a specific
pid number, alloc_pidmap() would also fail if either the given pid
number is invalid or in use.
Rather than have callers assume -ENOMEM, have alloc_pidmap() return
the actual error.
Changelog[v1]:
- [Oren Laadan] Rebase to kernel 2.6.33
