[PATCH 4.19 1/2] cgroup-v1: Require capabilities to set release_agent

[Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>]

From: Eric W. Biederman <ebiederm@xmission.com>

commit 24f6008564183aa120d07c03d9289519c2fe02af upstream.

The cgroup release_agent is called with call_usermodehelper.  The function
call_usermodehelper starts the release_agent with a full set fo capabilities.
Therefore require capabilities when setting the release_agaent.
