Hi Pavel,
This patch seems to be missing from your most recent patchset.
Do you want to include it in the set as a helper or should I
just send this to Andrew separately ?
Well, AFAIS this is also relevant to current kernel, so I think
that if you send it to Andrew this will be just fine. Besides,
the pid namespaces patchset is already huge, so pushing patches
separately from it is also very good.
Thanks,
Pavel

| You are right. The changelog could be better. How about this:
|
| |
| | Without this change cap_set_all() skips only the main thread of /sbin/init,
| | but we should skip the entire process as the comment states.

| When setting capabilities, cap_set_all() must skip all threads of the
