Re: [PATCH -v3 1/3] Capabilities: move cap_file_mmap to commoncap.c

[Serge E. Hallyn]

Quoting Eric Paris (eparis@xxxxxxxxxx):

It also

	1. changes the return value in error case from -EACCES to
	   -EPERM
	2. no onger sets PF_SUPERPRIV in t->flags if the capability
	   is used.

Do we care about these?
