Subject[PATCH] pid:fix a return value in alloc_pid
Date
When I doing a make about linux-next in X86 right now,it prompts a 
warning about "‘retval’ may be used uninitialized in this function
[-Wmaybe-uninitialized]". So I found that undefined 'retval' initially
in alloc_pid(),so the return ERR_PTR(retval) was an uncertain value.
Kmem_cache_alloc() is for sapce,so it will return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) if
unsuccessful.
