> The owner of an unprivileged ublk device is recorded in 32 bit fields of
> struct ublksrv_ctrl_dev_info, and only the owner may open the disk. A
> UUID or GUID user comes out as -1 there, like every other one, so they
> could open each other's devices.
>
> Fail the creation of unprivileged devices by such users with
> -EOVERFLOW, and never let such a user pass the owner check.
