Cover letter [PATCH 0/5] cr: attempt at task userid restoration

Here is a broken-out patchset representing a first stab at checkpoint and restoring task userids. As I note somewhere, I have more thinking to do about refcounting and I'm sure there are plenty of bugs. I'm sending this out to see if there are major objections to this general approach.

thanks,
