pid-namespace: limit value of ns_last_pid to (0, max_pid)

Browse Source 
The kernel doesn't check the pid for negative values, so if you try to
write -2 to /proc/sys/kernel/ns_last_pid, you will get a kernel panic.

The crash happens because the next pid is -1, and alloc_pidmap() will
try to access to a nonexistent pidmap.

  map = &pid_ns->pidmap[pid/BITS_PER_PAGE];
