Commit 69f594a38967 ("ptrace: do not audit capability check when outputing
/proc/pid/stat") replaced the use of ns_capable() with
has_ns_capability{,_noaudit}() which doesn't set PF_SUPERPRIV.

Commit 6b3ad6649a4c ("ptrace: reintroduce usage of subjective credentials in
ptrace_has_cap()") replaced has_ns_capability{,_noaudit}() with
security_capable(), which doesn't set PF_SUPERPRIV neither.

Since commit 98f368e9e263 ("kernel: Add noaudit variant of ns_capable()"), a
new ns_capable_noaudit() helper is available.  Let's use it!

As a result, the signature of ptrace_has_cap() is restored to its original one.
