[PATCH 1/3] selinux: Implement LSM notification system

[Sebastien Buisson]

From: Daniel Jurgens <danielj at mellanox.com>

Add a generic notification mechanism in the LSM. Interested consumers
can register a callback with the LSM and security modules can produce
events.

Add a call to the notification mechanism from SELinux when the AVC
cache changes.
