drivers/net/tehuti: use proper capability check for raw IO access
Yeah, in practice they both mean "root", but Alan correctly points out that anybody who gets to do raw IO space accesses should really be using CAP_SYS_RAWIO rather than CAP_NET_ADMIN. Pointed-out-by: Alan Cox <alan@lxorguk.ukuu.org.uk> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
