[RFC PATCH 08/11] block: Allow blkdev ioctls within user namespaces

[Seth Forshee]

Many blkdev ioctls require CAP_SYS_ADMIN, preventing them from
being used on block devices owned by unpriveleged user
namespaces. Change this to requiring only CAP_SYS_ADMIN within
the namespace which owns the device. Most devices are owned by
init_user_ns, and in that case this check is equivalent.
