I agree with Daniel, but I suggest you to think about it: in reading
operation, maybe it's ok, no concurrency issues need to be taken
care...but how about writing? unless we're sure they are atomically or
uninterruptible, i see a chance that race condition might happen here.

Actually it's similar when you map a file into two different VMA and
write into it, correct?
