[PATCH] tty: n_gsm: require CAP_NET_ADMIN to attach N_GSM0710 ldisc

From: Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo
Date: Mon Jul 31 2023 - 15:00:11 EST


Any unprivileged user can attach N_GSM0710 ldisc, but it requires
CAP_NET_ADMIN to create a GSM network anyway.

Require initial namespace CAP_NET_ADMIN to do that.
