Something else: bm_register_write() currently calls into open_exec(), which uses the credentials of current. That's not really allowed in this context - but so far, it's not a big deal because only init-namespace root can reach this code. Before you expose this stuff to unprivileged userspace, this needs to get fixed; perhaps by wrapping the open_exec() call in override_creds(file->f_cred) and revert_creds().
