Thanks, I'll fix it in V2

I tested it on my machine without libcap-dev installed, the 
/usr/include/linux/capability.h

is on this machine by default. Successfully compiled using #include 
<linux/capability.h>

but not with #include <sys/capability.h>. This patch removes libcap 
library dependencies.

And we don't use any part of sys/capability.h other than these two 
syscalls. So I think that's why it's necessary.
