Corey Minyard 6964a5a247 pid: Fix error return value in some cases ...

commit b26ebfe12f upstream.

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.
