selftests/capabilities: Fix the test_execve test
commit 796a3bae upstream. test_execve does rather odd mount manipulations to safely create temporary setuid and setgid executables that aren't visible to the rest of the system. Those executables end up in the test's cwd, but that cwd is MNT_DETACHed. The core namespace code considers MNT_DETACHed trees to belong to no mount namespace at all and, in general, MNT_DETACHed trees are only barely function. This interacted with commit 380cf5ba ("fs: Treat foreign mounts as nosuid") to cause all MNT_DETACHed trees to act as though they're nosuid, breaking the test. Fix it by just not detaching the tree. It's still in a private mount namespace and is therefore still invisible to the rest of the system (except via /proc, and the same nosuid logic will protect all other programs on the system from believing in test_execve's setuid bits). While we're at it, fix some blatant whitespace problems. Reported-by: Naresh Kamboju <naresh.kamboju@linaro.org> Fixes: 380cf5ba ("fs: Treat foreign mounts as nosuid") Cc: "Eric W.
