Subject: [PATCH v4 11/42] selinux: add limits for SELinux namespaces
Add maxns and maxnsdepth limits for SELinux namespaces
to enable control over the max number of SELinux namespaces
and the max depth to which one can nest SELinux namespaces.
Provide Kconfig options to control the default values for both
limits, and allow them to be overridden via selinuxfs in the
init SELinux namespace only.
