This array contains the capability names for the given capabilitiy.
For example, index CAP_BPF contains "CAP_BPF".

I may just be old and slow, but why is this better than

	[CAP_CHOWN] = "CAP_CHOWN",
Good catch, thank you for it, I just replaced the __stringify_1() by quotes.
I thought of using __stringify_() because at first I thought of adding a new 
macro which would both define a new capability as well as adding to this array.

But I think it is better to with this simple way rather than doing complicated 
stuff.
