The patch titled
     file capabilities: honor !SECURE_NOROOT
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was

------------------------------------------------------
Subject: file capabilities: honor !SECURE_NOROOT
From: Serge E. Hallyn <serue@xxxxxxxxxx>

When the SECURE_NOROOT securebit is not set, allow root to keep it's
capabilities over exec, rather than compute the capabilities based on file
capabilities.
