pids: alloc_pidmap: remove the unnecessary boundary checks

Browse Source 
alloc_pidmap() calculates max_scan so that if the initial offset != 0 we
inspect the first map->page twice.  This is correct, we want to find the
unused bits < offset in this bitmap block.  Add the comment.

But it doesn't make any sense to stop the find_next_offset() loop when we
are looking into this map->page for the second time.  We have already
already checked the bits >= offset during the first attempt, it is fine to
do this again, no matter if we succeed this time or not.

Remove this hard-to-understand code.  It optimizes the very unlikely case
when we are going to fail, but slows down the more likely case.
