Summary:                    [patch] restart gracefully drops cap_net_admin
capability
Description: 
When running asterisk as non-root and setting IP TOS to a value that
requires cap_net_admin or root privileges, ``restart gracefully'' or
similar commands will cause observed tcpdump output to show the IP TOS
value being set to 0 instead of the requested value.

Lose the CAP_NET_ADMIN at every fork, instead of at startup.  Otherwise,
if
Asterisk runs as a non-root user and the administrator does a 'restart
now',
Asterisk loses the ability to set QOS on packets.
