    	    CRED: Differentiate objective and effective subjective credentials on a task
    
    The problem is that the above patch allows a process to have two sets of
    credentials, and for the most part uses the subjective credentials when
    accessing current's creds.
    
    There is, however, one exception: cap_capable(), and thus capable(), uses the
    real/objective credentials of the target task, whether or not it is the current
    task.
    
    Ordinarily this doesn't matter, since usually the two cred pointers in current
    point to the same set of creds.  However, sys_faccessat() makes use of this
    facility to override the credentials of the calling process to make its test,
    without affecting the creds as seen from other processes.
    
    One of the things sys_faccessat() does is to make an adjustment to the
    effective capabilities mask, which cap_capable(), as it stands, then ignores.
    
    The affected capability check is in generic_permission():
    
    	if (!(mask & MAY_EXEC) || execute_ok(inode))
    		if (capable(CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE))
    			return 0;
    
    This change splits capable() from has_capability() down into the commoncap and
    SELinux code.  The capable() security op now only deals with the current
    process, and uses the current process's subjective creds.  A new security op -
    task_capable() - is introduced that can check any task's objective creds.
    
    strictly the capable() security op is superfluous with the presence of the
    task_capable() op, however it should be faster to call the capable() op since
    two fewer arguments need be passed down through the various layers.
    
    This can be tested by compiling the following program from the XFS testsuite:

    This can be run against an Ext3 filesystem as well as against an XFS
    filesystem.  If successful, it will show:

    	---------- 1 dhowells dhowells 0 2008-12-31 03:00 /tmp/xxx
    	access(/tmp/xxx, 0) returns 0
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK) returns 0
    	access(/tmp/xxx, W_OK) returns 0
    	access(/tmp/xxx, X_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK | W_OK) returns 0
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK | X_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, W_OK | X_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK | W_OK | X_OK) returns -1
    
    If unsuccessful, it will show:
    
    	[root@andromeda src]# ./t_access_root /tmp/xxx 0 4043 4043
    	---------- 1 dhowells dhowells 0 2008-12-31 02:56 /tmp/xxx

    	access(/tmp/xxx, W_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, X_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK | W_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK | X_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, W_OK | X_OK) returns -1
    	access(/tmp/xxx, R_OK | W_OK | X_OK) returns -1
    
    I've also tested the fix with the SELinux and syscalls LTP testsuites.
