Trigger a build error if a new capability is defined without corresponding update to security/selinux/include/classmap.h's COMMON_CAP2_PERMS. This is similar to BUILD_BUG_ON() guards in the SELinux nlmsgtab code to ensure that SELinux tracks new netlink message types as needed. Note that there is already a similar build guard in security/selinux/hooks.c to detect when more than 64 capabilities are defined, since that will require adding a third capability class to SELinux. A nicer way to do this would be to extend scripts/selinux/genheaders or a similar tool to auto-generate the necessary definitions and code for SELinux capability checking from include/uapi/linux/capability.h. AppArmor does something similar in its Makefile, although it only needs to generate a single table of names. That is left as future work.
