Linus Torvalds 2061f18ad7 Capabilities patch for v6.19
There is only a single commit,
 
    Clarify the rootid_owns_currentns
 
 which introduces no functional change.  Ryan Foster had sent a patch
 to add testing of the security/commoncap.c:rootid_owns_currentns()
 function.  The patch pointed out that this function was not as clear
 as it should be.
 
 This commit has two purposes:
 
 1. Clarify the intent of the function in the name
 2. Split the function so that the base functionality is easier
    to test from a kunit test.
 
 This commit has been in linux-next since November 18 with no reported
 issues.  Ryan has posted an updated test patch based on this commit.
