net: Push capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) into the rtnl methods
- In rtnetlink_rcv_msg convert the capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) check
to ns_capable(net->user-ns, CAP_NET_ADMIN). Allowing unprivileged
users to make netlink calls to modify their local network
namespace.
- In the rtnetlink doit methods add capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) so
that calls that are not safe for unprivileged users are still
protected.
Later patches will remove the extra capable calls from methods
that are safe for unprivilged users.
