I know absolutely nothing about ipc/, so probably I am wrong. But do
we really need shm_lock() (which also another idr_find) to check
->shm_creator ? This is calles by idr_for_each() and afaics "void *p"
should match, no?

IOW, can't shm_try_destroy_current() do something like

	struct shmid_kernel *shp = container_of(p, shmid_kernel, shm_perm);

	if (shp->shm_creator != current)
		return;

	shm_lock();
	...

?

Just curious.

Oleg.
