Looking at the code now that it the internal mount of proc is no
longer used it is possible to unmount proc. If proc is unmounted
the fields of the pid namespace that were used for filesystem
specific state are not reinitialized.

Which means that proc_self and proc_thread_self can be pointers to
already freed dentries.

The reported user after free appears to be from mounting and
unmounting proc followed by mounting proc again and using error
injection to cause the new root dentry allocation to fail. This in
turn results in proc_kill_sb running with proc_self and
proc_thread_self still retaining their values from the previous mount
of proc. Then calling dput on either proc_self of proc_thread_self
will result in double put. Which KASAN sees as a use after free.

Solve this by always reinitializing the filesystem state stored
in the struct pid_namespace, when proc is unmounted.

This should fix the reported syzbot failure.
