      proc: Allow proc_free_inum to be called from any context · dfb2ea45

      While testing the pid namespace code I hit this nasty warning.

      It turns out that spin_unlock_bh(proc_inum_lock) is not safe when
      put_pid is called with another spinlock held and irqs disabled.
      
      For now take the easy path and use spin_lock_irqsave(proc_inum_lock)
      in proc_free_inum and spin_loc_irq in proc_alloc_inum(proc_inum_lock).

      pidns: Stop pid allocation when init dies · c876ad76
      Eric W. Biederman authored
      Oleg pointed out that in a pid namespace the sequence.
      - pid 1 becomes a zombie
      - setns(thepidns), fork,...
      - reaping pid 1.
      - The injected processes exiting.
      
      Can lead to processes attempting access their child reaper and
      instead following a stale pointer.
      
      That waitpid for init can return before all of the processes in
      the pid namespace have exited is also unfortunate.
      
      Avoid these problems by disabling the allocation of new pids in a pid
      namespace when init dies, instead of when the last process in a pid
      namespace is reaped.

      This reverts commit 79f77bf9.
      
      This is obviously wrong, and I have no idea how I missed seeing the
      warning in testing: I must just not have looked at the right logs.  The
      caller bumps rq_resused/rq_next_page, so it will always be hit on a
      large enough read.

      causes a duplicated build target.  This patch fixes it and sorts out the
      build target alphabetically so that we can recognize something wrong
      easily.
