At least I think it should not wait for the tasks injected into this ns.

Because this looks like a kernel bug even if we forget about this deadlock.

Say we create a task P using clone(CLONE_NEWPID), then inject a task T into
P's pid-namespace via setns/fork. This make the process P "unkillable", it
will hang in zap_pid_ns_processes() "forever" until T->parent reaps a zombie
task T killed by P.

Oleg.
