What effect is this fallback going to have for nested namespaces?

Let's say we have an outer namespace N1 with this uid_map:

    0 100000 65535

and with this fsuid_map:

    0 300000 65535

Now from in there, a process that is not aware of the existence of
fsuid mappings creates a new user namespace N2 with the following
uid_map:

    0 1000 1

At this point, if a process in N2 does chown("foo", 0, 0), is that
going to make "foo" owned by kuid 101000, which isn't even mapped in
N1?

Let's say we have an outer user namespace N1 with this uid_map:

    0 1000 3000

and this fsuid_map:

    0 2000 3000

and in that namespace, a process is running as UID 1000 (which means
kernel-euid=2000, kernel-fsuid=3000). Now this process unshares its
user namespace and from this nested user namespace N2, tries to write
the following fsuid_map:

    0 1000 1

This should work, since the only ID it maps is the one the process had
in N1; but the code is AFAICS going to run as follows:

        if ((new_map->nr_extents == 1) && (new_map->extent[0].count == 1) &&
            uid_eq(ns->owner, cred->euid)) { // branch taken
                u32 id = new_map->extent[0].lower_first;
                if (cap_setid == CAP_SETUID) { // branch taken
                        // uid = make_kfsuid(ns->parent, 1000) = 3000
                        kuid_t uid = map_fsid ? make_kfsuid(ns->parent, id) :
                                                make_kuid(ns->parent, id);
                        // uid_eq(3000, 2000)
                        if (uid_eq(uid, cred->euid)) // not taken
                                return true;
                } else [...]
        }

Instead, I think what would succeed is this, which shouldn't be allowed:

    0 0 1

which AFAICS will evaluate as follows:

        if ((new_map->nr_extents == 1) && (new_map->extent[0].count == 1) &&
            uid_eq(ns->owner, cred->euid)) { // branch taken
                u32 id = new_map->extent[0].lower_first;
                if (cap_setid == CAP_SETUID) { // branch taken
                        // uid = make_kfsuid(ns->parent, 0) = 2000
                        kuid_t uid = map_fsid ? make_kfsuid(ns->parent, id) :
                                                make_kuid(ns->parent, id);
                        // uid_eq(2000, 2000)
                        if (uid_eq(uid, cred->euid)) // taken
                                return true;
                } else [...]
        }
