So this is one I wondered about too. The problem is that the shifted credential (the one representing the fsuid/fsgid the filesystem will see) still has cred->group_info representing the kuid/kgid which are unshifted from the filesystem perspective. The solution was to use in_group_p_shifted when you're comparing a filesystem view fsgid and use in_group_p when you're comparing a kernel kgid. However, I'm now thinking that's way too complex and what should happen is that I should shift every member of cred->group_info so that all searches happen on the fs view, meaning the fs always uses in_group_p like it does today and only the corner cases that compare a kgid need shifting.
