        IMM: saImmOmAdminOwnerClear should only be allowed for root users 
[#1053]

        The local immnd enforces access control for saImmOmAdminOwnerClear if
        access-control is enabled.

        In addition, a minor change of code is done for 
immnd_fevs_local_checks. The
        fix for ticket #938, changeset 5648:bc8d57d94f9f added a parameter 
'sinfo'
        to immnd_fevs_local_checks. This is a pointer parameter and it turns out
        that the sinfo struct is not available to all contexts where
        immnd_fevs_local_checks is invoked. This caused coverity complaints and
        these where justified because the code in immnd_fevs_local_checks using
        sinfo did not guard for NULL. Instead of adding such code, this patch
        changes the parameter to 'uid_t uid'. The uid is what is actually used 
in
        this function. It will be set to zero for cases where the message is
        generated internally by the local IMMND. This matches the semantics of 
the
        parameter. Even if the IMMNDs are not executing as root, they need the 
root
        priviliges enforced by the IMM access control.

Reviewer Checklist:
-------------------
[Submitters: make sure that your review doesn't trigger any checkmarks!]


Your checkin has not passed review because (see checked entries):

___ Your RR template is generally incomplete; it has too many blank entries
    that need proper data filled in.

___ You have failed to nominate the proper persons for review and push.

___ Your patches do not have proper short+long header

___ You have grammar/spelling in your header that is unacceptable.

___ You have exceeded a sensible line length in your headers/comments/text.

___ You have failed to put in a proper Trac Ticket # into your commits.

___ You have incorrectly put/left internal data in your comments/files
    (i.e. internal bug tracking tool IDs, product names etc)

___ You have not given any evidence of testing beyond basic build tests.
    Demonstrate some level of runtime or other sanity testing.

___ You have ^M present in some of your files. These have to be removed.

___ You have needlessly changed whitespace or added whitespace crimes
    like trailing spaces, or spaces before tabs.

___ You have mixed real technical changes with whitespace and other
    cosmetic code cleanup changes. These have to be separate commits.

___ You need to refactor your submission into logical chunks; there is
    too much content into a single commit.

___ You have extraneous garbage in your review (merge commits etc)

___ You have giant attachments which should never have been sent;
    Instead you should place your content in a public tree to be pulled.

___ You have too many commits attached to an e-mail; resend as threaded
    commits, or place in a public tree for a pull.

___ You have resent this content multiple times without a clear indication
    of what has changed between each re-send.

___ You have failed to adequately and individually address all of the
    comments and change requests that were proposed in the initial review.

___ You have a misconfigured ~/.hgrc file (i.e. username, email etc)

___ Your computer have a badly configured date and time; confusing the
    the threaded patch review.

___ Your changes affect IPC mechanism, and you don't present any results
    for in-service upgradability test.

___ Your changes affect user manual and documentation, your patch series
    do not contain the patch that updates the Doxygen manual.
