Make capabilities inheritable by default. The following remarks
apply:
* executables are assumed by default to have a full set of
"inheritable" (allowed) and "effective" capabilities,
* w.r.t. capabilities(7)-documented behavior, inheritance of the
effective bits is changed (use P(eff) rather than F(eff) in half
of the formula),
* also, inheritance of the inheritable set is based on the new
permitted set rather than on the old inheritable.
See <URL: http://www.madore.org/~david/linux/newcaps/ > for more
detailed explanations.
