I agree with Al. This helper cannot be enabled for all of bpf tracing.
We have to white list its usage for specific callsites only.
May be all of lsm hooks are safe. I don't know yet. This has to be
analyzed carefully. Every hook. One by one.
in_task() isn't really a solution.

At the same time I agree that such helper is badly needed.
Folks have been requesting it for long time.
