The CAP_NET_ADMIN checks are needed to prevent attackers faking a device under NCIUARTSETDRIVER and exploit privileged commands. This patch add GENL_ADMIN_PERM flags in genl_ops to fulfill the check. Except for commands like NFC_CMD_GET_DEVICE, NFC_CMD_GET_TARGET, NFC_CMD_LLC_GET_PARAMS, and NFC_CMD_GET_SE, which are mainly information- read operations.

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.
