Hmm, I think my understanding was incorrect. This patch here is trying
to get the correct value of UID 1000 from a mapped mount, which the UID 0.

Okay, thanks for your above example it helped me to understand the idmap
logic. Before I tried to read the xfstests test cases and VFS code about
the idmap but didn't totally done yet.

I will test and review the patches again today or next week.

Thanks
