Subject[PATCH 1/1] pidns: fix free_pid() to handle the first fork failure
"case 0" in free_pid() assumes that disable_pid_allocation() should
clear PIDNS_HASH_ADDING before the last pid goes away. However this
doesn't happen if the 1st fork() fails to create the child reaper
which should call disable_pid_allocation().
