[PATCH v3 1/5] pid: replace pidmap_lock with xarray lock

[Brian Foster]

As a first step to changing the struct pid tracking code from the
idr over to the xarray, replace the custom pidmap_lock spinlock with
the internal lock associated with the underlying xarray. This is
effectively equivalent to using idr_lock() and friends, but since
the goal is to disentangle from the idr, move directly to the
underlying xarray api.
