[v1,0/7] pid: Introduce helper task_is_in_root_ns()

Message

The kernel uses open code to check if a process is in root PID namespace
or not in several places.

Suggested by Suzuki, this patch set is to create a helper function
task_is_in_root_ns() so we can use it replace open code.

To test this patch set, I built Arm64 kernel with enabling all relevant
modules, and verified the kernel with CoreSight module on Arm64 Juno
board.
