+2.4.5 KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag
+--------------------------
+
+The KF_DESTRUCTIVE flag is used to indicate functions calling which is
+destructive to the system. For example such a call can result in system
+rebooting or panicking. Due to this additional restrictions apply to these
+calls. At the moment they only require CAP_SYS_BOOT capability, but more can be
+added later.
