Subject: disablenetwork (v5): Require CAP_SETPCAP to enable disablenetwork.

From: Michael Stone <[email-masked]>
Date: Fri, 15 Jan 2010 03:13:08 -0500

We implement this check by allocating a new flag bit in task_struct->network
and by propagating its semantics throughout the disablenetwork facility.
