[PATCH v4 4/9] block: use new capable_any functionality

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Use the new added capable_any function in appropriate cases, where a
task is required to have any of two capabilities.

Reorder CAP_SYS_ADMIN last.

Fixes: 94c4b4fd25e6 ("block: Check ADMIN before NICE for IOPRIO_CLASS_RT")
