Subject: [RFC][v8][PATCH 1/10]: Factor out code to allocate pidmap page

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

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.
