cr_seeotheruids — determine visibility of objects given their user credentials

       This  function  determines  the  visibility  of  objects  in the kernel based on the real user IDs in the
       credentials u1 and u2 associated with them.

       The visibility of objects is influenced by the sysctl(8) variable security.bsd.see_other_uids.   If  this
       variable  is non-zero then all objects in the kernel are visible to each other irrespective of their user
       IDs.  If this variable is zero then the object  with  credentials  u2  is  visible  to  the  object  with
       credentials u1 if either u1 is the super-user credential, or if u1 and u2 have the same real user ID.

       cr_seeotheruids — determine visibility of objects given their user credentials

       This  function  returns zero if the object with credential u1 can “see” the object with credential u2, or
       ESRCH otherwise.
