Alistair Delva 1560763677 block: Check ADMIN before NICE for IOPRIO_CLASS_RT
commit 94c4b4fd25e6c3763941bdec3ad54f2204afa992 upstream.

Booting to Android userspace on 5.14 or newer triggers the following
SELinux denial:

avc: denied { sys_nice } for comm="init" capability=23
     scontext=u:r:init:s0 tcontext=u:r:init:s0 tclass=capability
     permissive=0

Init is PID 0 running as root, so it already has CAP_SYS_ADMIN. For
better compatibility with older SEPolicy, check ADMIN before NICE.

Fixes: 9d3a39a5f1e4 ("block: grant IOPRIO_CLASS_RT to CAP_SYS_NICE")

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
