So "enabled" is actually that non kernel ownership is enabled. That
is totally non-obvious.

Ok. So "take_ownership" isn't quite as clear as I'd like, but it's
not too bad because it's implied that it's the caller that's taking
the ownership. *set* ownership makes no sense without saying who the
new owner is. "enable" has no clear meaning in that context.
Calling it "kernel_owned" or "non_kernel_owned" would be ok if a bit
clunky.

Right, I have no problem with a combined function for the operation
here. It's purely a naming thing "set_ownership" and "enable" are
just not concepts that fit together sensibly.
