[PATCH] ipc: check checkpoint_restore_ns_capable() to modify C/R proc files

From: Michal Clapinski
Date: Thu Sep 16 2021 - 14:07:10 EST


This commit removes the requirement to be root to modify sem_next_id,
msg_next_id and shm_next_id and checks checkpoint_restore_ns_capable
instead.

Since those files are specific to the IPC namespace, there is no reason
they should require root privileges. This is similar to ns_last_pid,
which also only checks checkpoint_restore_ns_capable.
