Linus Torvalds 52556d4b18 Make TASKSTATS require root access ... commit 1a51410abe upstream. Ok, this isn't optimal, since it means that 'iotop' needs admin capabilities, and we may have to work on this some more. But at the same time it is very much not acceptable to let anybody just read anybody elses IO statistics quite at this level. Use of the GENL_ADMIN_PERM suggested by Johannes Berg as an alternative to checking the capabilities by hand.
