All parameters of posix messages queues (queues_max/msg_max/msgsize_max) end up being limited by RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE. The code in mqueue_get_inode is where that limiting happens. The RLIMIT_MSGQUEUE is bound to the user namespace and is counted hierarchically. We can allow root in the user namespace to modify the posix messages queues parameters.
