pidns: Outlaw thread creation after unshare(CLONE_NEWPID)
The sequence: unshare(CLONE_NEWPID) clone(CLONE_THREAD|CLONE_SIGHAND|CLONE_VM) Creates a new process in the new pid namespace without setting pid_ns->child_reaper. After forking this results in a NULL pointer dereference. Avoid this and other nonsense scenarios that can show up after creating a new pid namespace with unshare by adding a new check in copy_prodcess.
