Does it make sense for the PIDs controller to allow a user to set a
limit of 0? Since we don't cancel attaches, a limit of 0 doesn't
affect anything (nothing stops attaches, and you need to have a
process in the PIDs cgroup in order for fork()s to be affected by the
limit). So I think that attempting to set pid.limit to 0 should return
an -EINVAL.
