  uapi: fix broken link in linux/capability.h (2025-07-04 19:21:53 -0500)

----------------------------------------------------------------
Capabilities update for 6.17

This branch contains two patches:

  cdd73b1666079a73d061396f361df55d59fe96e6 uapi: fix broken link in linux/capability.h

This updates documentation in capability.h.

  337490f0007f910968f828e46501db3091b1a4f8 exec: Correct the permission check for unsafe exec

This is not a trivial patch, but fixes a real problem where during
exec, different effective and real credentials were assumed to mean
changed credentials, making it impossible in the no-new-privs case
to keep different uid and euid.

These are available at:

   git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/sergeh/linux.git #caps-pr-20250729

on top of commit 19272b37aa4f83ca52bdf9c16d5d81bdd1354494 (tag: v6.16-rc1)
