This might be a bit more concise if you turn it into something like:

/* only USB IO supplies creds */
cred = cred ?: current_cred();
is_scoped = domain_IPC_scope(landlock_cred(cred)->domain,
    target_dom, LANDLOCK_SCOPED_SIGNAL);

but that's just a question of style, feel free to keep it as-is
depending on what you prefer.

I'm not an expert on how the fowner stuff works, but I think this will
probably give you "result = NULL" if the file owner PID has already
exited, and then the following landlock_get_task_domain() would
probably crash? But I'm not entirely sure about how this works.

I think the intended way to use this hook would be to instead use the
"file_set_fowner" hook to record the owning domain (though the setup
for that is going to be kind of a pain...), see the Smack and SELinux
definitions of that hook. Or alternatively maybe it would be even
nicer to change the fown_struct to record a cred* instead of a uid and
euid and then use the domain from those credentials for this hook...
I'm not sure which of those would be easier.
