3.16.7-ckt4 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------ From: Oleg Nesterov <o...@redhat.com> commit 24c037ebf5723d4d9ab0996433cee4f96c292a4d upstream. alloc_pid() does get_pid_ns() beforehand but forgets to put_pid_ns() if it fails because disable_pid_allocation() was called by the exiting child_reaper. We could simply move get_pid_ns() down to successful return, but this fix tries to be as trivial as possible. Signed-off-by: Oleg Nesterov <o...@redhat.com> Reviewed-by: "Eric W.
