Description

I just upgraded our Katello 2.2 environment to the latest Katello 2.4 RC.
After this update one of our roles doen't work correctly any more.

We've got a role which contains the filter 'view_content_hosts'.
When a user with this role tries to navigate to Host -> Content Hosts a 403 permission denied error occurs.

Here's the Foreman production.log:

During further experimenting with this role I found out that by adding the filter called 'view_organizations' the 403 can be prevented.
However, opening the Content Hosts page still doesn't work with it. With this filter set I get the Select Organization page (instead of the 403)
but once I select an organization I get redirected back to the same Select Organization page instead of the Content Hosts page.
When I then navigate to a different Foreman page I get the notification 'Organization you had selected as your context has been deleted.'

Another thing I noticed is that the Context button in the top left side of the webinterface doesn't show any organization or location (just empty lists) when using this role.

Content hosts have been reworked to be more tightly integrated with hosts and the permissions have been ported over as well.
