This patch adds a hash table to quicken searching of a smack label by its name.
For a typical idle for TIZEN the CPU wastes circa 5-10% of its cycles for processing the smk_find_entry function. This patch adds a hash map that should speed up searches by a factor of up to 500 at the cost of additional 4kiB memory for the hash table.
