[PATCH -v4 1/3] Capabilities: move cap_file_mmap to commoncap.c

From: Eric Paris
Date: Fri Jul 31 2009 - 12:59:20 EST


Currently we duplicate the mmap_min_addr test in cap_file_mmap and in
security_file_mmap if !CONFIG_SECURITY. This patch moves cap_file_mmap
into commoncap.c and then calls that function directly from
security_file_mmap ifndef CONFIG_SECURITY like all of the other capability
checks are done.
