commit b25a7c5af9051850d4f3d93ca500056ab6ec724b upstream.
The printing of section addresses in /sys/module/*/sections/* was not
using the correct credentials to evaluate visibility.
Before:
# cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text
0xffffffffc0458000
...
# capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
0xffffffffc0458000
...
After:
# cat /sys/module/*/sections/*.text
0xffffffffc0458000
...
# capsh --drop=CAP_SYSLOG -- -c "cat /sys/module/*/sections/.*text"
0x0000000000000000
...
Additionally replaces the existing (safe) /proc/modules check with
file->f_cred for consistency.
