I've been looking at how perf_event->owner is handled and couldn't
figure out how you deal with the case of passing perf_event_fd via scm_rights.
It seems one process can open an event, pass it to another process,
but when current process exists owner will still point to dead task,
since refcount > 0.
Which part am I missing?
