fct() in C means fct(...) (variable arguments) (unlike C++).

You really mean fct(void) here.

If possible, move all lttng specific includes at the end of the
include list.

We only have a newline before including "local" headers (between ""),
and there are none here, so newline not needed.

Run this patch through the Linux kernel checkpatch.pl script
please.

We can remove this todo. We can document this in a comment at the top of
the file. That's how it works, and I don't see much point in trying to
optimize for this use-case. The comment could look like:

/*
 * Re-register the application when changing user ID. This is especially
 * important for per-UID buffers. It is not strictly needed for per-PID
 * buffers, but a slight extra overhead when changing user ID is considered
 * harmless for a relatively infrequent operation.

Since we use it in code, we need to define (locally) e.g.

#define LTTNG_UST_INIT_SEM_COUNT    2

Just above the sem_count definition and use it. We try hard
to never hardcode any constant.

0 is fine though.

Thanks,
