Isn't that equal to this?

if (ns_capable(tcred->user->user_ns, CAP_KILL))
return 1;

if (cred->user->user_ns == tcred->user->user_ns &&
(cred->euid == tcred->suid ||
cred->euid == tcred->uid ||
cred->uid == tcred->suid ||
cred->uid == tcred->uid))
return 1;

return 0;

I would consider this much easier to read.
