Add hooks for set/get/remove fscaps operations which perform the same
checks as the xattr hooks would have done for XATTR_NAME_CAPS.

The selinux_inode_setxattr() code also has a cap_inode_setxattr()
check which is missing here.  Unless you are handling this somewhere
else, I would expect the function above to look similar to
selinux_inode_remove_fscaps(), but obviously tweaked for setting the
fscaps and not removing them.
Right, but cap_inode_setxattr() doesn't do anything for fscaps, so I
omitted the call. Unless you think the call should be included in case
cap_inode_setxattr() changes in the future, which is a reasonable
position.
Fair enough, but I'd be a lot happier if you included the call in case
something changes in the future.  I worry that omitting the call would
make it easier for us to forget about this if/when things change and
suddenly we have a security issue.  If you are morally opposed to
that, at the very least put a comment in selinux_inode_set_fscaps()
about this so we know who to yell at in the future ;)
Makes sense, no objection from me. I'll add it in for v3.
