The alternative would probably be to somehow use a relevant userns when struct ksmbd_user is created when the session is established. But these are deeper ksmbd design questions. The fix proposed here itself seems good.

I guess ksmbd works whenever the netlink peer is not in a user namespace with mapped UID/GID, but it should result in obvious access bugs otherwise (which is already the case anyway). It seems that the netlink peer must be trusted because it is the source of truth for account/user mapping anyway. This change fixes the more critical side of the issue and it should fit well for backports.

A kernel daemon should not rely on the current thread, which is unknown and might be malicious. Before this security fix, ksmbd_override_fsids() didn't correctly override FS UID/GID which means that arbitrary user space threads could trick the kernel to impersonate arbitrary users or groups for file system access checks, leading to file system access bypass.
