exit: pidns: alloc_pid() leaks pid_namespace if child_reaper is exiting
alloc_pid() does get_pid_ns() beforehand but forgets to put_pid_ns() if it fails because disable_pid_allocation() was called by the exiting child_reaper. We could simply move get_pid_ns() down to successful return, but this fix tries to be as trivial as possible. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <oleg@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: "Eric W.
