selinux: avoid atomic_t usage in sidtab As noted in Documentation/atomic_t.txt, if we don't need the RMW atomic operations, we should only use READ_ONCE()/WRITE_ONCE() + smp_rmb()/smp_wmb() where necessary (or the combined variants smp_load_acquire()/smp_store_release()). This patch converts the sidtab code to use regular u32 for the counter and reverse lookup cache and use the appropriate operations instead of atomic_get()/atomic_set(). Note that when reading/updating the reverse lookup cache we don't need memory barriers as it doesn't need to be consistent or accurate. We can now also replace some atomic ops with regular loads (when under spinlock) and stores (for conversion target fields that are always accessed under the master table's spinlock). We can now also bump SIDTAB_MAX to U32_MAX as we can use the full u32 range again.
