Huh? It looks like it is...

static int pid_ns_ctl_handler(struct ctl_table *table, int write,
                void __user *buffer, size_t *lenp, loff_t *ppos)
{
        struct pid_namespace *pid_ns = task_active_pid_ns(current);
        struct ctl_table tmp = *table;
        int ret, next;

        if (write && !ns_capable(pid_ns->user_ns, CAP_SYS_ADMIN))
                return -EPERM;

        ...
