[PATCH v4 2/2] pid: Remove pidhash

From: Gargi Sharma
Date: Mon Oct 09 2017 - 17:14:28 EST


pidhash is no longer required as all the information
can be looked up from idr tree. nr_hashed represented
the number of pids that had been hashed. Since, nr_hashed and
PIDNS_HASH_ADDING are no longer relevant, it has been renamed
to pid_allocated and PIDNS_ADDING respectively.
