Deprecate find_task_by_pid()
There are some places that are known to operate on tasks' global pids only: * the rest_init() call (called on boot) * the kgdb's getthread * the create_kthread() (since the kthread is run in init ns) So use the find_task_by_pid_ns(..., &init_pid_ns) there and schedule the find_task_by_pid for removal.
