The CAP_NET_ADMIN checks are needed to prevent attackers faking a device under NCIUARTSETDRIVER and exploit privileged commands. This patch add GENL_ADMIN_PERM flags in genl_ops to fulfill the check. Except for commands like NFC_CMD_GET_DEVICE, NFC_CMD_GET_TARGET, NFC_CMD_LLC_GET_PARAMS, and NFC_CMD_GET_SE, which are mainly information- read operations.
