Linus Torvalds 6179d7a630 Capabilities update for 7.0
This branch contains two patches which have been in linux-next for a
 few weeks.  The first,
 
   security: Add KUnit tests for kuid_root_in_ns and vfsuid_root_in_currentns
 
 adds some tests of core capabilities helpers.  The second
 
   ipc: don't audit capability check in ipc_permissions()
 
 avoids emitting audit messages when there's not actually a permission
 being denied.
