[LTP] [RFC PATCH 0/1] tst API for dropping or requiring capabilities

[Richard Palethorpe]

Hello,

This API allows one to drop or require particular capabilities after setup.

It can be used like this:

	.caps = (struct tst_cap []) {
		TST_CAP(TST_DROP, CAP_SYS_ADMIN),
		{0, 0, 0},
	},

or

	.caps = (struct tst_cap []) {
	        TST_CAP(TST_DROP, CAP_SYS_ADMIN)
		TST_CAP(TST_REQUIRE, CAP_SOMETHING),
		{0, 0, 0},
	},

It uses capget and capset directly so that we do not need to link to libcap.
