Why I did it
Starting 6.1.94, Kernel mandates the process to have SYS_ADMIN/NET_ADMIN capability to join events/packets multicast group respectively PSAMPLE used packets and DROPMON uses events

Without this, the following error is observed and host-sflow couldn't use psample and NET_DB and so the feature is broken
