fs/proc/base.c: use ns_capable instead of capable for timerslack_ns
Access to timerslack_ns is controlled by a process having CAP_SYS_NICE in its effective capability set, but the current check looks in the root namespace instead of the process' user namespace. Since a process is allowed to do other activities controlled by CAP_SYS_NICE inside a namespace, it should also be able to adjust timerslack_ns.
