proc_filter test requires root privileges. Add root privilege check

I am not sure why you have added this check? proc_filter does not need root privilege to run.
It failed for me when I ran it saying it requires root privileges.
I had to run it as root.
The following is what I see when I run the test as non-root
user:
bind failed: Operation not permitted
Yes, that’s expected on a kernel which does not have the kernel patches submitted with this selftest installed on it.
So this check for root needs to be removed.
I will send v2 for this patch without root check. I should have
split the argument error paths and root check anyway.
However, what is strange is if the test run by root, bind() doesn't fail.
This doesn't make sense to me based on what you said about bind() fails
if kernel doesn't support the new feature.
I didn’t say that - part of the changes introduced by the patches is to remove the root check and add some features on top of existing code.
Okay. So what should happen if a root user runs this test on a kernel
that doesn't have the kernel patches submitted with this selftest
installed on it?
