pipe: make account_pipe_buffers() return a value, and use it
This is an optional patch, to provide a small performance improvement. Alter account_pipe_buffers() so that it returns the new value in user->pipe_bufs. This means that we can refactor too_many_pipe_buffers_soft() and too_many_pipe_buffers_hard() to avoid the costs of repeated use of atomic_long_read() to get the value user->pipe_bufs.
