SMB is path-based so there's no worry about filehandles there. It looks
like ksmbd keeps a set of ksmbd_share_config objects, that are
configured by userland. If someone deliberately shares stuff under
/proc, then I guess they get to keep all of the pieces. ;)

9P does use filehandles, but there is no in-kernel server, so far.
Wedson had one in development at one point [1], but I haven't heard
anything about it in a while.
