Indeed. I think from a kernel point of view the main thing is to look
at why userspace feels the need to do things like this and see if
there's anything we can improve or do better with in future APIs, part
of the original discussion here was figuring out that there's not really
any other reasonable options for userspace to implement this check at
the minute.
