commit0dc1ba24f7("SELINUX: Make selinux cache VFS RCU walks safe") results in no audit messages at all if in permissive mode because the cache is updated during the rcu walk and thus no denial occurs on the subsequent ref walk. Fix this by not updating the cache when performing a non-blocking permission check. This only affects search and symlink read checks during rcu walk.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
