[PATCH v3 0/2] block: fine-granular CAP_SYS_ADMIN for Persistent Reservation ioctl

[Jingbo Xu]

changes since v2:
- patch 1: disallow reservations on partitions entirely and make it into
  a separate patch (hch)
- patch 2: rebase to hch's series of converting fmode_t to blk_mode_t
  and execute permission check upon blk_mode_t (hch)

changes since RFC:
- only allow unprivileged reservations if the file descriptor is open
  for write (Christoph Hellwig)
- refuse the unprivileged reservations on partitions (Christoph Hellwig)
  (maybe this checking shall also be done when CAP_SYS_ADMIN is set?)
