This kernel has 2 capability modules and the other one is loaded by default.

See /etc/modprobe.preload

rmmod capability
rmmod commoncap

modprobe realcap any=1 allcaps=1

if you want to load realcap permanently replace the line capability in 
/etc/modprobe.preload with realcap
and adjust the realcap settings in modprobe.conf.
