If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: "Rafael J. Wysocki" commit 11388c87d2abca1f01975ced28ce9eacea239104 upstream. Require processes wanting to use the wake_lock/wake_unlock sysfs files to have the CAP_BLOCK_SUSPEND capability, which also is required for the eventpoll EPOLLWAKEUP flag to be effective, so that all interfaces related to blocking autosleep depend on the same capability.
