This might be problematic, since there is a shared receive-queue in
the kernel netlink message might get processed in the context of
a different process. I didn't find any spots where ISCSI passes
pointers over netlink, can you point me to it?

Please explain... Would the pid be set erroneously as well ?  Ignoring
the kernel-user space pointer issue, we're going to have a tight
pid + request_id relationship being maintained across multiple messages.
We'll also be depending on the pid events for clean up if an app dies.
So I hope pid is consistent.
