Subject: userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace.
X-Git-Tag: accepted/tizen/common/20141203.182822~1543^2~3
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=160da84dbb39443fdade7151bc63a88f8e953077;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-arm64.git

userns: Allow PR_CAPBSET_DROP in a user namespace.

As the capabilites and capability bounding set are per user namespace
properties it is safe to allow changing them with just CAP_SETPCAP
permission in the user namespace.
