Hi!
A few very minor points pointed out below, if you agree with these I can
fix them up when applying the patch. Othat than these it looks fine.

Shouldn't we put these comments into the header instead?

This is a bit ugly I would prefer:

	if (!memcmp(cur, new, sizeof(new))
		return;

	if (tst_capset(&hdr, new))
		tst_brk(...);
