[PATCH] Fix failure path in alloc_pid()

From: Matthew Wilcox
Date: Fri Dec 28 2018 - 10:22:40 EST


The failure path removes the allocated PIDs from the wrong namespace.
This could lead to us inadvertently reusing PIDs in the leaf namespace
and leaking PIDs in parent namespaces.

Fixes: 95846ecf9dac ("pid: replace pid bitmap implementation with IDR API")
