I think you are correct here and tasklist_lock should cover both.  Do we
also want rcu_read_lock() immediately preceeding it?

Because we hammered out this idea 6 months ago in the design phase and I
thought we all firmly agreed that the audit container identifier could
only be set once.  Has any significant discussion happenned since then
to change that wisdom?  I just wonder why this is coming up now.

We do since that is the only way we can tell if the value has been set
once already or inherited unless we check if the parent's audit
container identifier is identical (which tells us it was inherited).

Fair enough.

Agreed, since another process on another CPU could race attempting this
same operation.  However, the task_lock() comment precludes using it
with write_lock_irq(&task_lock) that might be required above.
