[PATCH net-next v2 0/2] net: devmem: allow bind-rx from non-init user namespaces

[Bobby Eshleman <bobbyeshleman@gmail.com>]

NETDEV_CMD_BIND_RX is GENL_ADMIN_PERM, which checks CAP_NET_ADMIN
against init_user_ns. With netkit and netns support for devmem, it is
now useful to let workloads holding CAP_NET_ADMIN only in their own
user_ns issue bind-rx for a netns owned by that user_ns.

The first patch switches the flag to GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM so the check
uses the target netns's owning user_ns. Init remains permitted.

The second patch just adds test cases. They are identical to
nk_devmem.py tests, but using a non-init userns.
