pid: Fix error return value in some cases
Recent changes to alloc_pid() allow the pid number to be specified on the command line. If set_tid_size is set, then the code scanning the levels will hard-set retval to -EPERM, overriding it's previous -ENOMEM value. After the code scanning the levels, there are error returns that do not set retval, assuming it is still set to -ENOMEM. So set retval back to -ENOMEM after scanning the levels.
