Pull pid_namespace updates from Christian Brauner:
- pid_namespace: make init creation more flexible
Annotate ->child_reaper accesses with {READ,WRITE}_ONCE() to protect
the unlocked readers from cpu/compiler reordering, and enforce that
pid 1 in a pid namespace is always the first allocated pid (the
set_tid path already required this).
On top of that, allow opening pid_for_children before the pid
namespace init has been created. This lets one process create the pid
namespace and a different process create the init via setns(), which
makes clone3(set_tid) usable in all cases evenly and is particularly
useful to CRIU when restoring nested containers.
A new selftest covers both the basic create-pidns-then-init flow and
the cross-process variant, and a MAINTAINERS entry for the pid
namespace code is added.
