Just forgot to mention - I don' think it is good idea to disallow secondary process to set  theowner.
Let say  in secondary process I have few tap/ring/pcap devices.
Why it shouldn't be allowed to unite them under bonding device and make that device to own them?
That's why I think get/set owner better to be atomic.
If the owner is just a pointer - in that case get operation will be atomic by nature,
set could be implemented just by CAS.
