No, there is no performance issue that I know of. I simply wanted to
move the sidtab_search() reference out of mls.c when I was adding the
sid_to_context/content_to_sid wrappers to services.c. I have now
dropped the wrappers in favor of just rewriting the sidtab functions,
but the mls_context_to_sid() interface looked really awkward to me,
especially considering that the 'ugly' part of the function is really
used by only one caller, so I decided to post the patch anyway.

I disagree, but I don't mind leaving it as it is if that's what you prefer.
