Subject: [PATCH 2/2] pid: Optional first-fit pid allocation
Noone would need to use this allocation strategy (it's slower, pid
numbers collide sooner). Its primary purpose are pid namespaces in
conjunction with pids.max cgroup limit which keeps (virtual) pid numbers
below the given limit. This is for 32-bit userspace programs that may
not work well with pid numbers above 65536.

kernel tries to allocate a number starting from this one.
+When set to -1, first-fit pid numbering is used instead of the next-fit.
