Mark, is this maybe the same as:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260706170735.2941493-1-linmag7@xxxxxxxxx/

A fix for it is here:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20260706-procfs-ns-eacces-fix-v1-1-a69ab14c02e6@xxxxxxxxxx/

It looks like it fell through the cracks for 2 weeks, but I prodded
there two days ago and Christian since then picked the fix up (and I
guess will send it to Linus soon).

Ciao, Thorsten
