Bad file pattern in MAINTAINERS section 'SELINUX SECURITY MODULE'

A file pattern line in this section of the MAINTAINERS file in linux-next
does not have a match in the linux source files.

This could occur because a matching filename was never added, was deleted
or renamed in some other commit.

The commits that added and if found renamed or removed the file pattern
are shown below.

Please fix this defect appropriately.

SELinux: Remove unused selinux_is_enabled

There are no longer users of selinux_is_enabled().
Remove it. As selinux_is_enabled() is the only reason
for include/linux/selinux.h remove that as well.
