Thanks, will do.

But which one? I am biased, but I'd prefer to revert 006568ab4c5ca2309ceb36
("pid: Add a judgment for ns null in pid_nr_ns")

Mostly because abdfd4948e45c51b1916 ("pid: make __task_pid_nr_ns(ns => NULL)
safe for zombie callers") tries to explain why this change makes sense and
why it is not easy to avoid ns == NULL.

OK?
