[2.6 patch] selinux/netlabel.c should #include "netlabel.h"

From: Adrian Bunk <bunk@kernel.org>

Every file should include the headers containing the externs for its 
global code.

It doesn't _need_ the file in the strictest sense, the header file is 
just there for the core SELinux code to call into the NetLabel/SELinux 
glue code (what is in security/selinux/netlabel.c).  However, if this 
is to conform better to kernel coding policy (I assume that is the case 
here?) then that is fine with me.

I'm not claiming it needs it.

But with this #include gcc can check that the prototypes in netlabel.h 
match the functions in netlabel.c

The bugs this catches are rare, but when you have such a bug it can be 
nasty to debug.

Good point, hadn't thought of that - thanks.
