Uh. I ment to add a dup() there, but I moved a lot of code, so I
forgot... What about the attached patch?
And of course I attached the wrong one. Here the right one.

Subject: [PATCH] dma: prevent races from sharing fd between children
On fork, fds are shared between children. If two processes work on
different recipients, but on the same queue file, they might get
confused when the fd (and thus the offset) is shared. Prevent this by
re-opening the fd after fork.
