Subject: capabilites: introduce new has_ns_capabilities_noaudit
X-Git-Url: https://git.karo-electronics.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=7b61d648499e74dbec3d4ce645675e0ae040ae78;p=linux-beck.git

capabilites: introduce new has_ns_capabilities_noaudit

For consistency in interfaces, introduce a new interface called
has_ns_capabilities_noaudit.  It checks if the given task has the given
capability in the given namespace.  Use this new function by
has_capabilities_noaudit.
