  ipc: don't audit capability check in ipc_permissions() (2026-01-27 21:30:42 -0600)

Capabilities update for 7.0

This branch contains two patches which have been in linux-next for a
few weeks.  The first,

  security: Add KUnit tests for kuid_root_in_ns and vfsuid_root_in_currentns

adds some tests of core capabilities helpers.  The second

  ipc: don't audit capability check in ipc_permissions()

avoids emitting audit messages when there's not actually a permission
being denied.
