[PATCH] SELinux: add slab cache for inode security struct
Add a slab cache for the SELinux inode security struct, one of which is allocated for every inode instantiated by the system. The memory savings are considerable. On 64-bit, instead of the size-128 cache, we have a slab object of 96 bytes, saving 32 bytes per object. After booting, I see about 4000 of these and then about 17,000 after a kernel compile. With this patch, we save around 530KB of kernel memory in the latter case. On 32-bit, the savings are about half of this.
