Well, I think we want to keep that variable private to the SELinux
"module". In the future, we'll likely add proper namespace prefixes to
all non-static SELinux symbols to avoid polluting the kernel namespace.
I think maybe I miscommunicated my intentions. If I move the check to
determine whether or not SELinux is enabled into selinux_id_to_ctx(),
then I can simply use ss_initialized directly rather then calling
selinux_available(), as I'll be making the check within the SELinux
"module" (selinux/exports.c).
