Init-user-ns is always uncontrolled and a process that has SYS_ADMIN that belongs to uncontrolled user-ns can create another (child) user- namespace that is uncontrolled. Any other process (that either does not have SYS_ADMIN or belongs to a controlled user-ns) can only create a user-ns that is controlled. global-capability-whitelist (controlled_userns_caps_whitelist) is used at the capability check-time and keeps the semantics for the processes that belong to uncontrolled user-ns as it is. Processes that belong to controlled user-ns however are subjected to different checks- (a) if the capability in question is controlled and process belongs to controlled user-ns, then it's always denied. (b) if the capability in question is NOT controlled then fall back to the traditional check.
