That little part by itself is really needed in order to make the ability
to remove CAP_MKNOD from a process tree's bounding set meaningful.
Else instead of creating /dev/hda1, the user can just mount a filesystem
with hda1 existing on it. (Which is why I was surprised when one day
I found this code missing :)
But of course I'm a fan of the patchset altogether. I plan to review in
more detail early next week, but since I liked the previous submission I
don't see myself having any complaints, so I'm glad to see the reviews
by others.
thanks,
