Willem de Bruijn a2bfaf4ce2 tun: revert fix group permission check
[ Upstream commit a70c7b3cbc0688016810bb2e0b9b8a0d6a530045 ]

This reverts commit 3ca459eaba1bf96a8c7878de84fa8872259a01e3.

The blamed commit caused a regression when neither tun->owner nor
tun->group is set. This is intended to be allowed, but now requires
CAP_NET_ADMIN.

Discussion in the referenced thread pointed out that the original
issue that prompted this patch can be resolved in userspace.

The relaxed access control may also make a device accessible when it
previously wasn't, while existing users may depend on it to not be.

This is a clean pure git revert, except for fixing the indentation on
the gid_valid line that checkpatch correctly flagged.

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.
