Hi Wei,

we can remove privileged user needs for this test.

we should probably use connect() here instead of raw syscall.

we only need this to trigger EACCES, so probably chmod(0500) is enough.
Read below.

This can easily become:

	SAFE_CHMOD(SOCK_FILE, tc->mode);

	TST_EXP_FAIL(connect(*tc->fd, (struct sockaddr *)&sock_un, sizeof(sock_un)),
		     tc->exp_errno, "%s", tc->desc);

To make it works, we need a mode attribute in the tcase struct:

- 0700 for EPROTOTYPE
- 0500 for EACCES

this is not needed anymore.

And root can go away.
