Quoting Eric W. Biederman (ebiederm@xxxxxxxxxxxx):
> 
> Allow an unpriviled user who has created a user namespace, and then
> created a network namespace to effectively use the new network
> namespace, by reducing capable(CAP_NET_ADMIN) calls to
> ns_capable(net->user_ns,CAP_NET_ADMIN) calls.
> 
> Allow setting of the tun iff flags.
> Allow creating of tun devices.
> Allow adding a new queue to a tun device.
