[PATCH 3/4] security: capabilities patch (version 0.4.4), part 3/4: introduce new capabilities

[David Madore <david.madore@ens.fr>]

[Sorry!  Previous mail had the wrong patch...  This one is correct.]

Introduce six new "regular" (=on-by-default) capabilities:

 * CAP_REG_FORK, CAP_REG_OPEN, CAP_REG_EXEC allow access to the
   fork(), open() and exec() syscalls,

 * CAP_REG_SXID allows privilege gain on suid/sgid exec,

 * CAP_REG_WRITE controls any write-access to the filesystem,

 * CAP_REG_PTRACE allows ptrace().

See <URL: http://www.madore.org/~david/linux/newcaps/ > for more
detailed explanations.
