Subject: [PATCH] (2.4.26-rc3-mm2) -mm Update CAP_LAST_CAP to reflect CAP_MAC_ADMIN

From: Casey Schaufler <casey@...aufler-ca.com>

Bump the value of CAP_LAST_CAP to reflect the current last cap value.
It appears that the patch that introduced CAP_LAST_CAP and the patch
that introduced CAP_MAC_ADMIN came in more or less at the same time.
