Subject: [PATCH] kdbus: forward ID notifications to everyone
Even if you cannot SEE another peer (eg., if you're behind a private
endpoint), the other peer might be able to TALK to you. Therefore, you
might get messages from them. This works mostly fine, with one major
exception, that you cannot track the remote peer. You will not receive ID
notifications for it, thus, you don't get notified when they disconnect.
This is unforunate and breaks sandboxes kdbus peers.
Fix this by forwarding ID notifications to everyone. Note that those
notifications don't carry _any_ useful information, besides the peer ID.
Therefore, even if you should not able to SEE a peer, you will now still
get ID notifications. This does not reveal any additional information on
the remote peer, besides its lifetime. Hence, it should be fine.
