--- Comment #1 from Konstantin Belousov <kib@FreeBSD.org> ---
What are the consequences of knowing that fd is root?
In other words, what could an adversary do knowing that, that she could not
do otherwise?

I do not want to introduce a special case in lookup() for this situation,
unless it is indeed a must.
