My patches mentiond above is not applied in this version. The same 
lock issues remain. Did you forget applying them ? In that case, 
here're the same patches again (on ver8):

==> 1:
cipso_seq_show should not be passed smack labels with no cipso
mapping. Omit non-cipso mapped labels in cipso_seq_start and 
BUG in case cipso_seq_show was passed a non-cipso label.

==> 2:

Avoid racy use of smack_{list,cipso}_count in traversing lists.
Simple smack_list and smack_known lockless list traversal is all 
what's needed.
