[PATCH -v2 3/3] filesystems: use has_capability_noaudit interface for reserved blocks checks

From: Eric Paris <eparis_at_redhat.com>
Date: Mon, 03 Nov 2008 16:27:29 -0500


ext[2,3,4], ufs, and ubifs all check for CAP_SYS_RESOURCE to determine if they should allow reserved blocks to be used. A process not having this capability is not failing some security decision and should not be audited. Thus move to using has_capability_noaudit.
