Martin KaFai Lau 663af70aab bpf: selftests: Add helpers to directly use the capget and capset syscall
After upgrading to the newer libcap (>= 2.60),
the libcap commit aca076443591 ("Make cap_t operations thread safe.")
added a "__u8 mutex;" to the "struct _cap_struct".  It caused a few byte
shift that breaks the assumption made in the "struct libcap" definition
in test_verifier.c.

The bpf selftest usage only needs to enable and disable the effective
caps of the running task.  It is easier to directly syscall the
capget and capset instead.  It can also remove the libcap
library dependency.

The cap_helpers.{c,h} is added.  One __u64 is used for all CAP_*
bits instead of two __u32.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
