Merge branch 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace
Pull (again) user namespace infrastructure changes from Eric Biederman: "Those bugs, those darn embarrasing bugs just want don't want to get fixed. Linus I just updated my mirror of your kernel.org tree and it appears you successfully pulled everything except the last 4 commits that fix those embarrasing bugs. When you get a chance can you please repull my branch" * 'for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/ebiederm/user-namespace: userns: Fix typo in description of the limitation of userns_install userns: Add a more complete capability subset test to commit_creds userns: Require CAP_SYS_ADMIN for most uses of setns. Fix cap_capable to only allow owners in the parent user namespace to have caps.
