Christoph Hellwig 313c08c72e nvme: don't allow unprivileged passthrough on partitions
Passthrough commands can always access the entire device, and thus
submitting them on partitions is an privelege escalation.

In hindsight we should have never allowed any passthrough commands on
partitions, but it's probably too late to change that decision now.

Fixes: e4fbcf32c8 ("nvme: identify-namespace without CAP_SYS_ADMIN")

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.
