Thank you!  Now I see that the problem is rw_mutex is not initialized:

	down_write(&shm_ids(ns).rw_mutex);

void __sched __down_write_nested(struct rw_semaphore *sem, int subclass)
{
    ...
	if (sem->activity == 0 && list_empty(&sem->wait_list)) {
                                         ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ is NULL

Wtf - ipc namespace should be fully initialized for the moment of
threads run...
