Can you elaborate how this is racy, please. Afaict, CRIU will always
usually restore in a new pid namespace that it controls, right? What is
the exact race?

Fwiw, the changelog should be placed after the "---" after your SOB, so
rather :):

v2:
- Removed (size < sizeof(struct clone_args)) as discussed with
Christian and Dmitry
- Added comment to ((set_tid != 1) && idr_get_cursor() <= 1) (Oleg)
- Use idr_alloc() instead of idr_alloc_cyclic() (Oleg)

Have you made sure that this makes sense with all flags, e.g. does this
make sense when specified with CLONE_THREAD?

Hm, feels to me that we should report a different error code than EAGAIN
when the allocation fails for set_tid. Right now you get EAGAIN for both
the non set_tid and the set_tid codepath.
But for set_tid the error that you likely should surface is EEXIST, i.e.
that pid is already taken.
