I've called out several things explicitly below. As a general comment,
you are keeping copies of data that you ought to be providing pointers to
in many instances. This is going to cause problems with kernel data size,
performance and data accuracy. Based on the form of data you're defining
I'm guessing your code is several times larger than it needs to be. As I
mentioned earlier, it's impossible to say for sure, given the separation
of data definition from code.

This looks like a lurking maintenance problem for both TSEM
and the LSM infrastructure. New hooks are added regularly. Hooks
that have outlived their usefulness are routinely deleted. The
mount infrastructure rewrite is a good example of why there needs
to be flexibility in hook lifetimes.
You might consider generating this mapping in tsem_init() rather
than hard coding it. Alas, no easy way to do that comes to mind. :(

I'm concerned about the number of locks you're maintaining.
I'm far from the world's expert on locking, but I see a whole
lot of potential for contention and conflict with existing
inode locking.

> + * This structure is the primary data structure for describing
> + * security events that occur in a security modeling namespace. Each
> + * unique security coefficient in the namespace will have one of these
> + * structures associated with it.
> + *
> + * This structure encapsulates the following three major sources of
> + * information about the event:
> + *
> + * * A description of the process initiating the event.
> + * * The characteristics of the COE identity of the event.
> + * * The characteristics of the CELL identity of the event.
> + *
> + * Since one event description has to ultimately characterize any
> + * security event that can occur, the strategy is to use a union that
> + * contains security event specific structures that describe the
> + * characteristics of the event. The event member of the structure
> + * is used to indicate the structure that should be referenced.
> + *
> + * The kref member of this structure is used to track the lifetime of
> + * an instance of this structure. For example, in the case of an
> + * externally modeled event, when the export of the event description
> + * is complete. In the case of an internally modeled namespace the
> + * structure will be released if it represents a security state
> + * coefficient that is already present in the model. The structures
> + * are also released when an internally modeled namespace terminates.
> + *
> + * The work member of this structure is used to support asynchronous
> + * updates to a TPM for the root modeling domain. Asynchronous
> + * updates are used to improve the performance of modeling and to
> + * handle security events that are running in atomic context and
> + * cannot be scheduled away while the TPM transaction completes.
> + *
> + * The tsem_event_allocate() function is called by a TSEM security
> + * event handler to allocate and populate an instance of this
> + * structure. The locked member of this structure is used to
> + * determine whether the structure should be allocated from the
> + * kmem_cache based structure pool or from the magazine of structures
> + * help for processes running in atomic context.
> + *
> + * After the event is mapped this structure is either passed to the
> + * internal trusted modeling agent or the contents of this structure
> + * is exported to the trust orchestrator attached to the namespace for
