net: Add variants of capable for use on netlink messages
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
[ Upstream commit aa4cf94 ]

netlink_net_capable - The common case use, for operations that are safe on a network namespace
netlink_capable - For operations that are only known to be safe for the global root
netlink_ns_capable - The general case of capable used to handle special cases

__netlink_ns_capable - Same as netlink_ns_capable except taking a netlink_skb_parms instead of
		       the skbuff of a netlink message.
