From: Thomas Haller <thaller@redhat.com>
GENL_ADMIN_PERM checks that the user has CAP_NET_ADMIN in the initial
namespace by calling netlink_capable(). Instead, use GENL_UNS_ADMIN_PERM
which uses netlink_ns_capable(). This checks that the caller has
CAP_NET_ADMIN in the current user namespace.
See also
commit 4a92602aa1cd ("openvswitch: allow management from inside user namespaces")
which introduced this mechanism. See also
commit 5617c6cd6f84 ("nl80211: Allow privileged operations from user namespaces")
which introduced this for nl80211.
