ipc: check checkpoint_restore_ns_capable() to modify C/R proc files
This commit removes the requirement to be root to modify sem_next_id,
msg_next_id and shm_next_id and checks checkpoint_restore_ns_capable
instead.
Since those files are specific to the IPC namespace, there is no reason
they should require root privileges. This is similar to ns_last_pid,
which also only checks checkpoint_restore_ns_capable.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: ipc/ipc_sysctl.c needs capability.h for checkpoint_restore_ns_capable()]
