When introducing CAP_BPF, bpf_jit_charge_modmem() was not changed to treat
programs with CAP_BPF as privileged for the purpose of JIT memory allocation.
This means that a program without CAP_BPF can block a program with CAP_BPF
from loading a program.
Fix this by checking bpf_capable() in bpf_jit_charge_modmem().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
