cgroup-v1: Require capabilities to set release_agent
commit 24f6008564183aa120d07c03d9289519c2fe02af upstream. The cgroup release_agent is called with call_usermodehelper. The function call_usermodehelper starts the release_agent with a full set fo capabilities. Therefore require capabilities when setting the release_agaent.
