From: Jann Horn <jann@xxxxxxxxx>
Subject: include/linux/security.h: fix typo in security_task_prctl()
prctl(PR_CAP_AMBIENT, PR_CAP_AMBIENT_RAISE, CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE, 0, 0)
failed with EINVAL because of a typo in kernel code.
Andy said: "on CONFIG_SECURITY=n systems (which is all that this affects),
this only matters for PR_CAP_AMBIENT, which is new".
