One struct file_operations registered by XPMEM, xpmem_open(), calls
'get_task_struct(current->group_leader)' and another, xpmem_flush(), calls
'put_task_struct(tg->group_leader)'.
Does it?  Well, then open the file in question and start doing close(dup(fd))
in a loop.  Won't take long for an oops...
