umh: Capture the pid in umh_pipe_setup
The pid in struct subprocess_info is only used by umh_clean_and_save_pid to write the pid into umh_info. Instead always capture the pid on struct umh_info in umh_pipe_setup, removing code that is specific to user mode drivers from the common user path of user mode helpers. v1: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/87h7uygf9i.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org v2: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/875zb97iix.fsf_-_@x220.int.ebiederm.org Link: https://lkml.kernel.org/r/20200702164140.4468-1-ebiederm@xmission.com Reviewed-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org> Acked-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Tested-by: Alexei Starovoitov <ast@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: "Eric W.
