    Revert "ve: Replace 0 ppid with 1 (workaround for bad utils)"
    
    This reverts commit b6a803bdf66bf3da211704060a8f263706c2a364.
    
    We won't support so ancient utils which are not ready for getting 0 as a
    parent PID which actually is a normal situation and means that the
    parent process is from an outer pidns and is not visible in the
    current pidns.
