I can't comment on the concept, but have one nit.

This accesses memory below the buffer if get_cmdline returned 0, which I
believe will be the case when someone jokingly unmaps the area (all
maybe when it is swapped out but can't be swapped in due to I/O errors).

Also since you are just putting 0 in there anyway I don't see much point
in testing for it.
