Subject: [PATCH mmotm 3/3] userns: make has_capability* into real functions
Date: Wed, 2 Mar 2011 20:58:02 -0600 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20110303025802.GB10138@peq.hallyn.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20110303025603.GA10071@peq.hallyn.com>
so we can let type safety keep things sane, and as a bonus we can
remove the declaration of init_user_ns in capability.h.
