Dan, could you take a closer look at what setuid(0) does? In the beggining
of setuid manual page you can read that:
setuid sets the effective user ID of the current process.
If the effective userid of the caller is root, the real
and saved user ID's are also set.
In this case check_kill_permission() returns -EPERM for unprivileged
parent.
