 If the PIDNS_ADDING check fails, I jump to the flag that performs
 this
 while (++i <= ns->level)
                 idr_remove(&ns->idr, (pid->numbers + i)->nr);
 So when find_pid_ns() is called, it will not find this pid.

I'm not sure if I understand this. Do we want to do this to make sure
the pid namespace is
initialized before the first process enters into
the namespace? If yes, how does idr_alloc_cyclic(ptr = NULL) help?

Sorry for missing out on this. Will do with the next version.

Thanks!
