hm, I'm surprised that we don't have a zero-returning implementation of
is_compat_task() when CONFIG_COMPAT=n.  Seems silly.  Blames Arnd.

This seems utterly broken on big-endian machines.  If so: fix.  If not:
add comment explaining why?

It's conventional to have a blank line between end-of-locals and
start-of-code.

The youngest-first design surprised me.  It wasn't mentioned at all in
the changelog.  Thinking about it, I guess it just doesn't matter.  But
some description of the reasons for and implications of this decision
for the uninitiated would be welcome.

So tasks don't share filters?  We copy them by value at fork?  Do we do
this at vfork() too?

I think this gives userspace an easy way of causing page allocation
failure warnings, by permitting large kmalloc() attempts.  Add
__GFP_NOWARN?

"check" is spelled "check"!

So if one of the filters in the list has an elevated refcount, we bail
out on the remainder of the list.  Seems odd.
