selinux: change security_compute_sid to return the ssid or tsid on match
[ Upstream commit fde46f60f6c5138ee422087addbc5bf5b4968bf1 ] If the end result of a security_compute_sid() computation matches the ssid or tsid, return that SID rather than looking it up again. This avoids the problem of multiple initial SIDs that map to the same context.
