Andy Lutomirski 796a3bae2f selftests/capabilities: Fix the test_execve test
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 380cf5ba6b ("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.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
