From: Adam Manzanares <adam.manzanares@xxxxxxx> Aio per command iopriority support introduces a second interface between userland and the kernel capable of passing iopriority. The aio interface also needs the ability to verify that the submitting context has sufficient priviledges to submit IOPRIO_RT commands. This patch creates the ioprio_check_cap function to be used by the ioprio_set system call and also by the aio interface.
