    security: define round_hint_to_min in !CONFIG_SECURITY
    
    Fix the header files to define round_hint_to_min() and to define
    mmap_min_addr_handler() in the !CONFIG_SECURITY case.
    
    Built and tested with !CONFIG_SECURITY

    Security/SELinux: seperate lsm specific mmap_min_addr
    
    Currently SELinux enforcement of controls on the ability to map low memory
    is determined by the mmap_min_addr tunable.  This patch causes SELinux to
    ignore the tunable and instead use a seperate Kconfig option specific to how
    much space the LSM should protect.
    
    The tunable will now only control the need for CAP_SYS_RAWIO and SELinux
    permissions will always protect the amount of low memory designated by
    CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR.
    
    This allows users who need to disable the mmap_min_addr controls (usual reason
    being they run WINE as a non-root user) to do so and still have SELinux
    controls preventing confined domains (like a web server) from being able to
    map some area of low memory.

    SELinux: call cap_file_mmap in selinux_file_mmap
    
    Currently SELinux does not check CAP_SYS_RAWIO in the file_mmap hook.  This
    means there is no DAC check on the ability to mmap low addresses in the
    memory space.  This function adds the DAC check for CAP_SYS_RAWIO while
    maintaining the selinux check on mmap_zero.  This means that processes
    which need to mmap low memory will need CAP_SYS_RAWIO and mmap_zero but will
    NOT need the SELinux sys_rawio capability.

    Capabilities: move cap_file_mmap to commoncap.c
    
    Currently we duplicate the mmap_min_addr test in cap_file_mmap and in
    security_file_mmap if !CONFIG_SECURITY.  This patch moves cap_file_mmap
    into commoncap.c and then calls that function directly from
    security_file_mmap ifndef CONFIG_SECURITY like all of the other capability
    checks are done.
