OK, I take it back. Even with the new patch applied, my fuzzer can still make the kernel leak user->locked_vm I assume that the locked_vm value should go back to 0 once a process that has a bunch of mmap'd perf_events opened exits? I admit this is sort of an obscure corner case, but it does mean that a user can leak user->locked_vm to the point that "perf record" no longer works.
