Michael Kerrisk 2fbfb575b8 capabilities.7: Under CAP_SYS_ADMIN, group "sub-capabilities" together
CAP_BPF, CAP_PERFMON, and CAP_CHECKPOINT_RESTORE have all been
added to split out the power of CAP_SYS_ADMIN into weaker pieces.
Group all of these capabilities together in the list under
CAP_SYS_ADMIN, to make it clear that there is a pattern to these
capabilities.

The final program execution above shows the special casing
that occurs in handle_privileged_root() for the case where:

    rUID != root && eUID == root && [file has capabilities]

Michael Kerrisk 1a9ed17c9e capabilities.7: Improve the discussion of when file capabilities are ignored
The text stated that the execve() capability transitions are not
performed for the same reasons that setuid and setgid mode bits
may be ignored (as described in execve(2)). But, that's not quite
correct: rather, the file capability sets are treated as empty
for the purpose of the capability transition calculations.

Also merge the new 'no_file_caps' kernel option text into the
same paragraph.
