Subject: [PATCH] net-ipv6: IPV6_TRANSPARENT - check NET_RAW prior to NET_ADMIN

From: Maciej Żenczykowski <maze@...gle.com>

NET_RAW is less dangerous, so more likely to be available to a process,
so check it first to prevent some spurious logging.

This matches IP_TRANSPARENT which checks NET_RAW first.
