If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Johannes Wiesböck [ Upstream commit bf29555f5bdc017bac22ca66fcb6c9f46ec8788f ] Creating FDB entries is possible from a non-initial user namespace when having CAP_NET_ADMIN, yet, when deleting FDB entries, processes receive an EPERM because the capability is always checked against the initial user namespace. This restricts the FDB management from unprivileged containers. Drop the netlink_capable check in rtnl_fdb_del as it was originally dropped in c5c351088ae7 and reintroduced in 1690be63a27b without intention. This patch was tested using a container on GyroidOS, where it was possible to delete FDB entries from an unprivileged user namespace and private network namespace.
