Okay I've been back and forth through ipc/shm.c and shm.h about 3 or 4 times.  Yes,
rather cursory of me to not read it 40 times.  But, seriously.

Who the FUCK owns a shm segment?  I can't see a way to check the creator of a segment
of shm in sys_shmat() in ipc/shm.c and I really tried too.

There are uid's and gid's associated with shm segments.
