[Devel] [PATCH v21 001/100] eclone (1/11): Factor out code to allocate pidmap page

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <sukadev at linux.vnet.ibm.com>

To simplify alloc_pidmap(), move code to allocate a pid map page to a
separate function.

Changelog[v4]:
	- [Oren Laadan] Adapt to kernel 2.6.33-rc5
Changelog[v3]:
	- Earlier version of patchset called alloc_pidmap_page() from two
	  places. But now its called from only one place. Even so, moving
	  this code out into a separate function simplifies alloc_pidmap().
Changelog[v2]:
	- (Matt Helsley, Dave Hansen) Have alloc_pidmap_page() return
	  -ENOMEM on error instead of -1.
