[PATCH] ncpfs: Use struct pid to track the userspace watchdog process.
type: item
description: This patch converts the tracking of the user space watchdog process from using a pid_t to use struct pid. This makes us safe from pid wrap around issues and prepares the way for the pid namespace. Signed-off-by: Eric W.
