[PATCH v2] proc: use ns_capable instead of capable for timerslack_ns

[Benjamin Gordon]

Access to timerslack_ns is controlled by a process having CAP_SYS_NICE
in its effective capability set, but the current check looks in the root
namespace instead of the process' user namespace.  Since a process is
allowed to do other activities controlled by CAP_SYS_NICE inside a
namespace, it should also be able to adjust timerslack_ns.

Changes from v1:
  - Use the namespace of the target process instead of the file opener.
    Didn't carry over John Stultz' Acked-by since the changes aren't
    cosmetic.
