Drop the second hunk of the patch (stray whitespace change).
The treatment of SI_ASYNCIO is wrong, as I described in an earlier posting.
(It is indeed a user-generated signal.) You'll need to avoid using this
function in the path from the USB driver case (interrupt level), since you
can't use SI_ASYNCIO to avoid unsafe use of pid_ns data structures. If you
do as I suggested in that posting, this is no problem since you just never
do this check in the kill_pid_info_as_uid (perhaps renamed) case.
Thanks,
Roland
