sys_setsid() still deals with pid_t's from the global namespace. This means
that the "session > 1" check can't help for sub-namespace init, setsid() can't
succeed because copy_process(CLONE_NEWPID) populates PIDTYPE_PGID/SID links.

Remove the usage of task_struct->pid and convert the code to use "struct pid".
This also simplifies and speedups the code, saves one find_pid().
