From: Darrick J. Wong <djwong@xxxxxxxxxx>
There are a few places where we test the current process' capability set
to decide if we're going to be more or less generous with resource
acquisition for a system call. If the process doesn't have the
capability, we can continue the call, albeit in a degraded mode.
These are /not/ the actual security decisions, so it's not proper to use
capable(), which (in certain selinux setups) causes audit messages to
get logged. Switch them to has_capability_noaudit.
