cipso: Fix data-races around sysctl.
[ Upstream commit dd44f04b9214adb68ef5684ae87a81ba03632250 ] While reading cipso sysctl variables, they can be changed concurrently. So, we need to add READ_ONCE() to avoid data-races.

The CIPSO label cache consists of a fixed size hash table with each
hash bucket containing a number of cache entries. This variable limits
- the number of entries in each hash bucket; the larger the value the
+ the number of entries in each hash bucket; the larger the value is, the
more CIPSO label mappings that can be cached. When the number of
entries in a given hash bucket reaches this limit adding new entries
causes the oldest entry in the bucket to be removed to make room.
