OK, then the question becomes is the communication protocol asyncronous or 
synchronous? If synchronous (the request is handled immediately and not 
queued like netlink), then current task struct can be used. Otherwise, there 
may be some more code needed to grab the loginuid during the send and store 
it with the packet until dequeued. If it is async, there may be selinux 
implications as well.
