Subject: [PATCH 5/5] Move alloc_pid call to copy_process

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@xxxxxxxxxx>

Move alloc_pid() into copy_process(). This will keep all pid and pid
namespace code together and simplify error handling when we support
multiple pid namespaces.

Changelog:
- [Eric Biederman] Move the check of copy_process_type to alloc_pid()/
free_pid() and to avoid clutter in copy_process().
