Many binary attributes need to limit access to CAP_SYS_ADMIN only; ie
many binary attributes specify is_visible with 0400 or 0600.

Make setting the permissions of such attributes more explicit by
defining BIN_ATTR_ADMIN_{RO,RW}.

		I'm not sure why that patch was not picked up.  But I've
		added Krzysztof as a suggested by if that is ok?
