From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <suka...@linux.vnet.ibm.com>
alloc_pidmap() can fail either because all pid numbers are in use or
because memory allocation failed. With support for setting a specific
pid number, alloc_pidmap() would also fail if either the given pid
number is invalid or in use.
Rather than have callers assume -ENOMEM, have alloc_pidmap() return
the actual error.
