Subject: [PATCH] Use find_task_by_pid_ns() in places that operate with virtual
 pids

When the pid comes from the userspace, the find_task_by_pid_ns()
should be used to find the task by pid in particular (usually the
current) namespace. These places were lost in earlier patches.

Think over: all these places work like this:

	if (pid == 0)
		task = current;
	else
		task = find_task_by_pid_ns(pid);

the question is: does it worth introducing a common helper for such
case and (if it does) what should its name be?
