[PATCH 5/5] [V2] Move alloc_pid() to copy_process()

[sukadev@us.ibm.com]

Subject: [PATCH 5/5] Move alloc_pid call to copy_process

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev@us.ibm.com>

Move alloc_pid() into copy_process(). This will keep all pid and pid
namespace code together and simplify error handling when we support
multiple pid namespaces.
