Good, IMO it improves the readability.

It looks like gcc inlines both of these function, so it seems there won't
be a problem...

Yes, I saw. Since zap_pid_ns_processes() waits for nr_hashed,
and __unhash_process() deletes from pid chain and sibling list
at the same time, pid_ns child_reaper can't have a child after
nr_hashed == init_pids.

Yeah, I'm agree.
