[PATCH 6.6.y] net: ip6_tunnel: require CAP_NET_ADMIN in the device netns for changelink

[Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org>]

From: Maoyi Xie <maoyixie.tju@gmail.com>

[ Upstream commit 2496fa0b7d180b3ad356b514e7ff93bb14e6140a ]

ip6_tnl_changelink() operates on at most two netns, dev_net(dev) and the
tunnel link netns t->net. They differ once the device is created in or
moved to a netns other than the one the request runs in. The rtnl
changelink path checks CAP_NET_ADMIN only against dev_net(dev), so a
caller privileged there but not in t->net can rewrite a tunnel that
lives in t->net.

Gate ip6_tnl_changelink() on rtnl_dev_link_net_capable() at its top,
before any attribute is parsed.
