Thanx to all for the input.  It really helped.
I ended up issuing a random cookie with each request.
Upon re-entry into the kernel, the data structure is searched for in the
in-kernel database.  If found, the cookie is compared.  If comparison
failed, 
we reject the call.  The performance implications will be studied later this
week.
