Bug description:
  The do_umount function in fs/namespace.c in the Linux kernel through
  3.17 does not require the CAP_SYS_ADMIN capability for do_remount_sb
  calls that change the root filesystem to read-only, which allows local
  users to cause a denial of service (loss of writability) by making
  certain unshare system calls, clearing the / MNT_LOCKED flag, and
  making an MNT_FORCE umount system call.

  Break-Fix: - a1480dcc3c706e309a88884723446f2e84fedd5b
