i have my doubts though about bothering with a pool of creds on linux. kmalloc on the linux already does a bit of work to keep pools of memory available of various sizes and this is just double work.
I'm not so sure. Since the OS doesn't actually have creds like we expect, we have to cons them up for every filesystem operation (that is, every time crget() is called). That's pretty frequent, and it seems appropriate to avoid the overhead of memory allocation every time.
