Thanks for the review, Andrew. Unfortunately this one is hard to turn
into a function beecause it uses security_real_capable(), which is
sometimes defined in security/security.c as a real function, and
other times as a static inline in include/linux/security.h. So
I'd have to #include security.h in capability.h, but security.h
already #includes capability.h.
All the other comments affect same_or_ancestor_user_ns(), which
following Eric's feedback is going away.
