rbd: require global CAP_SYS_ADMIN for mapping and unmapping
It turns out that currently we rely only on sysfs attribute permissions: $ ll /sys/bus/rbd/{add*,remove*} --w------- 1 root root 4096 Sep 3 20:37 /sys/bus/rbd/add --w------- 1 root root 4096 Sep 3 20:37 /sys/bus/rbd/add_single_major --w------- 1 root root 4096 Sep 3 20:37 /sys/bus/rbd/remove --w------- 1 root root 4096 Sep 3 20:38 /sys/bus/rbd/remove_single_major This means that images can be mapped and unmapped (i.e. block devices can be created and deleted) by a UID 0 process even after it drops all privileges or by any process with CAP_DAC_OVERRIDE in its user namespace as long as UID 0 is mapped into that user namespace. Be consistent with other virtual block devices (loop, nbd, dm, md, etc) and require CAP_SYS_ADMIN in the initial user namespace for mapping and unmapping, and also for dumping the configuration string and refreshing the image header.
