Currently a packet accumulates multiple security identifiers, each of a
different class, as it enters the system. This patch set reconciles these
identifiers into a single identifier while also allowing LSM (SELinux is
addressed in this patch set) to impose flow control checks based on the
identifiers.

The reconciliation steps for SELinux are explained in the Labeled Networking
document at:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-netdev&m=115136637800361&w=2
with the change that SELinux transition rules are used when available
to arrive at the new secid.

The following are the identifiers handled here:

1. secmark on the skb
2. xfrm security identifier associated with the skb if it used any xfrms,
  a zero secid otherwise.

This patch: Add new flask definitions to SELinux

Adds a new avperm "come_thru" to arbitrate among the identifiers on the
inbound (input/forward). Also adds a new avperm "go_thru" to enable flow
control checks on the outbound (output/forward), addressed in a later
patch.
