The preparsed field isn't necessary. I'll change it.

I agree, that would be useful.

Will do.

We don't need a dedicated sid variable. Should I make similar changes
in the second patch (get rid of the local sid variable in
selinux_sb_remount() and the *context_sid variables in
selinux_set_mnt_opts())?
