[Devel] [PATCH 1/2] Uninline find_task_by_xxx set of functions

The find_task_by_something is a set of macros are used to find
task by pid depending on what kind of pid is proposed - global
or virtual one. All of them are wrappers above the most generic
one - find_task_by_pid_type_ns() - and just substitute some 
args for it.

It turned out, that dereferencing the current->nsproxy->pid_ns 
construction and pushing one more argument on the stack inline
cause kernel text size to grow.

This patch moves all this stuff out-of-line into kernel/pid.c. 
Together with the next patch it saves a bit less than 400 bytes 
from the .text section.
