This patch implements filesystem capabilities. It allows to run privileged executables without the need for suid root.
Changes: - recognize new capability db immediately instead of after the next mount
The complete patch is available at: <http://home.t-online.de/home/olaf.dietsche/linux/capability/>
Regards, Olaf.
