On really old kernels (< 4.14+) a bug in /proc/1/sched handling in the kernel could be used to determine whether we are running in a PID namespace. This hasn't worked for a long time, and there's little point in making things work on old kernels we can't make work on current kernels, hence let's drop that old cruft. See: #8153
