userns: Changing any namespace id mappings should require privileges
commit 41c21e351e79004dbb4efa4bc14a53a7e0af38c5 upstream.
Changing uid/gid/projid mappings doesn't change your id within the
namespace; it reconfigures the namespace. Unprivileged programs should
*not* be able to write these files. (We're also checking the privileges
on the wrong task.)
Given the write-once nature of these files and the other security
checks, this is likely impossible to usefully exploit.
