Subject: [AppArmor 16/45] Call lsm hook before unhashing dentry in vfs_rmdir()

If we unhash the dentry before calling the security_inode_rmdir hook,
we cannot compute the file's pathname in the hook anymore. AppArmor
needs to know the filename in order to decide whether a file may be
deleted, though.
