[PATCH for 4.4.y-cip] cgroup-v1: Require capabilities to set release_agent

["Masami Ichikawa" <masami256@gmail.com>]

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.
