Within BPF syscall handling code CAP_NET_ADMIN checks stand out a bit compared to CAP_BPF and CAP_PERFMON checks. For the latter, CAP_BPF or CAP_PERFMON are checked first, but if they are not set, CAP_SYS_ADMIN takes over and grants whatever part of BPF syscall is required. Similar kind of checks that involve CAP_NET_ADMIN are not so consistent. One out of four uses does follow CAP_BPF/CAP_PERFMON model: during BPF_PROG_LOAD, if the type of BPF program is "network-related" either CAP_NET_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_ADMIN is required to proceed. But in three other cases CAP_NET_ADMIN is required even if CAP_SYS_ADMIN is set: - when creating DEVMAP/XDKMAP/CPU_MAP maps; - when attaching CGROUP_SKB programs; - when handling BPF_PROG_QUERY command. This patch is changing the latter three cases to follow BPF_PROG_LOAD model, that is allowing to proceed under either CAP_NET_ADMIN or CAP_SYS_ADMIN. This also makes it cleaner in subsequent BPF token patches to switch wholesomely to a generic bpf_token_capable(int cap) check, that always falls back to CAP_SYS_ADMIN if requested capability is missing.
