Subject: [RFC PATCH v6 01/16] selinux: Cleanup the NetLabel glue code

We were doing a lot of extra work in selinux_netlbl_sock_graft() what wasn't
necessary so this patch removes that code.  It also removes the redundant
second argument to selinux_netlbl_sock_setsid() which allows us to simplify a
few other functions.
