[PATCH -mm] fs.h: ifdef security fields

[Alexey Dobriyan]

[BSD security levels are deleted in -mm, assuming this below]

The only user of i_security, f_security, s_security fields is SELinux,
so ifdef them with CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX. Following Stephen Smalley's
suggestion, i_security initialization is moved to security_inode_alloc()
to not clutter core code with ifdefs and make alloc_inode() codepath
tiny little bit smaller and faster.

The user of (highly greppable) struct fown_struct::security field is
still to be found. I've checked every "fown_struct" and every "f_owner"
occurence. Additionally, it's removal doesn't break i386 allmodconfig
build.

struct inode, struct file, struct super_block, struct fown_struct
become smaller.

P.S. Combined with two reiserfs inode shrinking patches sent to
linux-fsdevel, I can finally suck 12 reiserfs inodes into one page.
