Revert "capabitlies: ns_capable can use the cap helpers rather than lsm call"
This reverts commit d2a7009f0bb03fa22ad08dd25472efa0568126b9. J. R. Okajima explains: "After this commit, I am afraid access(2) on NFS may not work correctly. The scenario based upon my guess. - access(2) overrides the credentials. - calls inode_permission() -- ... -- generic_permission() -- ns_capable(). - while the old ns_capable() calls security_capable(current_cred()), the new ns_capable() calls has_ns_capability(current) -- security_capable(__task_cred(t)). current_cred() returns current->cred which is effective (overridden) credentials, but __task_cred(current) returns current->real_cred (the NFSD's credential). And the overridden credentials by access(2) lost." Requested-by: J. R. Okajima <hooanon05@yahoo.co.jp> Acked-by: Eric Paris <eparis@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
